“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, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
(Hebrews 12:1-2)
You endured the Cross for the joy that was set before You.
That joy was us for whom You died.
Help me to endure and live in the midst of whatever details are ever in my life, for the Joy set before me.
For that Joy is You…
Knowing You.
Loving You.
Being with You.
Growing in You.
Living for You.
No matter what is going on around us or in our lives. It’s all about You.
Help us to live worthy of Your calling, for Your glory.
