Becoming a Christian can be likened to becoming an Olympic athlete. In order to be called an Olympic athlete, one needs to reach the pinnacle of self-discipline or else all hope of winning will be lost. Likewise, a believer cannot step into the race of God without counting the cost first. Even as Jesus exhorted us through the parable, “For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it…” Luke 14:28 The Lord calls us to carry our crosses and deny the desires of the flesh, or else we may not finish the race. Therefore, we must count the cost and remain selfdisciplined in all our conduct.
