Laying Aside Every Weight

WHEN an athlete intends to enter some contest, he trains for it, seeking to get rid of the weight of every superfluous pound of flesh. He is after his “running weight” or his “rowing weight.” And so it is in the Christian race. Sloth is a weight. Ignorance is a weight. Bigotry is a weight. Selfishness is a weight. We must work these off, or we shall never get into condition for our Christian service.
