The 2012 London Olympics have come and gone. As the dust settles in London, people will remember when their eyes were glued to the 100m heat, a race won by Jamaican Usian Bolt in a stunning Olympic record time. Australians will not forget Sally Pearson winning gold in the 100m hurdles or Tom Slingsby in the mens laser. One characteristic marks every Olympic athlete: they are fit! Years of training have fitted them for an ultimate test of speed, endurance, and/or strength. The apostle Paul desired to be fit for a lifetime of ministry.
