The meaning behind 10:31

When I named this blog "10:31 | Running the Race" I wanted the blog to have a name that meant something special. something that stayed with me. Something that I would relate to in every season of my life.

There might be a few of you who know what 10:31 means but a couple years ago, my family and I thought of watching a movie together. Our favorite movies to see are movies that are similar to War Room, Pamala's Prayer, The Forge, Courageous, or God's not dead.

That night, we came across a movie named Remember the Goal. Seeing it was about Cross Country, as you know me, I begged my family to watch it with me.

         I loved cross country and still do but most imporntanly, I was just finishing the last weeks of cross country myself. Cross country had such an impact on me. because of this, the movie became one of my favorites and to this day i've rewatched it three times.

         The movie, Remember the Goal, is all about doing your best even though there are those that don't agree with what the Lord lead you to do. the coach in the movie, started the season with this one verse.

"So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."

1 Corinthians 10:31

1 Corinthians 10:31? ohh, 10:31. that exact verse is the plain meaning of 10:31. Do all for the glory of God. all. whether it's running, school, motherhood, work, singing, your time of relaxation, or even drinking just a plain cup of water. do it all for Him. what does that mean exactly?
