“And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith” (Hebrews 12:1-2)
It is not easy to follow Jesus. It is wonderful and joyous, but it is not easy. Satan seeks to trip us up as we go; the old nature keeps rearing its ugly head, and even society resists the message of the gospel and the call to holy and pure living.
Our task is to keep moving forward both in our personal lives and in our life in the world. Our goal is to finish like He did . . . full of faith and the truth.
Don't lose your focus! (One of Satan's most effective tricks is to keep us so busy we have no time to grow in the Lord.) So, stop reading this, and spend some time with the One who loves you more than we can comprehend.
