Run with Perseverance

Hebrews 12:1
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.

I won’t lie, I am not a runner!  However, every single one of us has a race we are running.  This is the race of life.  It’s not a matter of who finishes first.  We don’t even all have the same race path to follow.  We do however all have the same finish line.  It is our goal to cross that finish line that ends at Heaven. 

Along the path, there will be many witnesses that we will pass.  There will be some that will try to slow us down or steer us off the path.  There will be obstacles in the path that will cause us to stumble. 

We have not been called to be the first to cross the finish line or even expected to run a perfect race.  We have been called to run with perseverance. 


What are you doing today to throw off the things that hinder you and the sin that so easily entangles you?
