It’s better to concentrate on godliness, because it holds promise for this life and the life to come .Bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things. – 1 Timothy 4:8. 

Godliness may sound dull, scary, and unattainable, but the essence of godliness is simply self-giving love – caring more for others than we care for ourselves. This kind of love is hard to come by, but it’s one that grows in the presence of love. We grow loving and more lovely by sitting at Jesus’ feet, listening to Him, talking things over – gaining in likeness to the One who is love (1 John 4:8).

Life is a journey into love, it seems to me, and there’s nothing so beautiful as godly soul. Physical exercise is good, no doubt, but there is something far, far better: It is to love.
