Endurance—and a little bird's example

Several years ago, a buddy of mine was telling me how much he was enjoying swimming each morning, and exclaimed, “So many people are going to the pool to get health; I like going to express it.”

What a great idea, that health is inherent in our being—something that comes from God. It’s a spiritual quality that’s expressed in strength and fitness. It’s integral to our nature, and can never fade away or need to be regained.
