Last night my wife were watching “The Biggest Loser” on NBC.  At one point, the participants took a challenge, where each team was pitted against each other to carry a large amount of weighted buckets up an incline and dump them in a hole at the top.  Eventually, one team emerged the winner, but the other contestants kept hauling their buckets, determined to complete the challenge, winner or not.  In fact, everyone than banded together to help the person in last place complete the challenge as well.  It struck me as a great example of how we’re not called to be number one or get first place in life: we’re called by God to push forward in the race, and to encourage each other along the way.
