Fight The Fight, Finish The Race, Keep The Faith

ByTim Nolte Updated on

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful. And now the prize awaits me—the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing. – 2 Timothy 4:7‭-‬8 NLT

As Christian husbands, and fathers, we are in a battle every day for our families. And each day we have the opportunity to do something to continue the fight.

“…the more we keep our bodies fit and free from addictions and stuff that slows us down and causes problems, the more energetic and focused we will be to fight those battles for Him” – The CODE Unlocked

We were not meant to continue the battle alone and that’s why God brings people into our lives to fight the fight alongside us. I’ve been blessed with a group of guys that I meet with on a regular basis that challenge me and support me in my walk. Recently we all shared the desire to be spending more time in God’s. Perhaps finding a Bible.com/YouVersion study to do together would be something to consider in the future.

    “When we allow God’s love and mercy to flow through us to our spouse, we will find less conflict, more grace, quicker forgiveness and much more delight at home.” I know that too often, I jump to conclusions and assumptions instead of giving people, especially my wife, the benefit of the doubt. This an area…

    Taking On The Wet And Windy Tuesday Run

    ByTim Nolte
    It was a kind of interesting morning, weather wise. There was some big thunder before 4am but when I got outside for my morning run there wasn’t much for rain, just some sprinkles and mist off-and-on. The wind came and went as well. The crazy thing once again is to see my pace improve of…

    ByTim Nolte
    It was a little bit of a struggle starting out this morning after having a long weekend of no running. Felt better by the end of my run. Through one of the worship songs this morning I was prompted to pray specifically for the father’s of Sierra Leone. There are many women and children that…
