The RaceWednesday 2nd June 2021
We all need encouragment amid the struggles of life. The book of Hebrews reminds us of how Jesus focused on the joy set before Him and how we too need to focus on our eternal home to aid us in the race set before us.
Hebrews 12 v1-3
Hebrews 12:1–3
Jesus, Founder and Perfecter of Our Faith
12:1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
Do Not Grow Weary
3 Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.
