The primary reason physical training of some sort is so impactful for the Christian is that the training mimics what it’s like to follow Christ so well.
In training, there are few low days, even fewer high days, but there’s a ton of nothing days. Not high, not low, just go out and do it.
We can use the same mindset used throughout this training to (correctly) continue turning towards God when, for the most part, it feels like nothing.
Of course in reality it’s not nothing, in training or holiness, but that only becomes clear after years of leaning into the nothing.
