Hebrews 12:1 (NKJV) 1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us…<\/p>\n
God has a race for each one of us to run.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not a race we run by ourselves. He sent us a Helper, the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will help us at all times, if we let Him.<\/p>\n
He will prompt us at times, warn us at times, comfort us and make sure we are doing the right thing and making the right decisions. He knows everything we need to know to get us to that finish line.<\/p>\n
The one thing we must do when running God\u2019s race is to stay the course, no matter what it feels like, no matter what it looks like and no matter how long it takes. Stay the course.<\/p>\n
Why do some of us feel like we never reach that finish line? Most of the time it’s because we don\u2019t stay the course. Either we get tired,\u00a0we get bored, or maybe we get scared, etc.<\/p>\n
Whatever the reason is, it\u2019s because we step off the course that God has for us, maybe to see if there is an easier way or quicker route.<\/p>\n
God says to stay the course…don\u2019t try to make it happen quicker. Don\u2019t try to find an easier way.<\/p>\n
Run with endurance and finish the race. Amen.<\/p>\n
