some spiritual and physical inspiration

So lately I've needed some more inspiration in spirituality and fitness. It's kind of weird that they get mentioned in the same post. But at this point, what motivates me for one, motivates me for the other.

So quicker than I could reason out why, I picked up a heavy pen and marked down my two favorite scriptures on my gym shoes today. Picture below.

It may be tough to actually see what the writing says on the front most silver stripes, so allow me to tell you. The left one says 1 Corinthians 9:24-26 and the right one says Alma 48:17.

S'ok if you're no scripture mastery guru, because I'm quoting them below. Just understand that they motivate me to progress spiritually and physically, at the time.

1 Corinthians 9:24-26

²⁴ Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
²⁵ And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
²⁶ I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air.

Alma 48:17

¹⁷ Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men.
