“Since we have such a huge crowd of men of faith watching us, let us strip off anything, that slows us down or holds us back, and especially those sins that wrap themselves so tightly around our feet and trip us up; and let us run with patience the particular race that God has set before us.”

It is wonderful to think that God has given us a race that we are supposed to run. We can look at our lives and simplify. Sin, jealousy, greed, conceit – take all these things that inhibit you and throw them aside. Just run; feel the wind in your face and the freedom of moving as fast as you can in the direction that God wants you to go!

THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING THIS RACE FOR ME. PLEASE GIVE ME THE STRENGTH TO STAY ON COURSE AND REACH THE FINISH LINE. AMEN.
