An excerpt taken from the "focus on freedom" bible study and Hebrews 12:1-4
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience 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 is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
" In these verses I found six life-changing truths which teach us that in the race of life":
.You are not running alone
.how you run will affect others
.You can't run with weights on
.you must run with endurance
.Every obstacle can be overcome
.You must stay focused to win
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For all of you that are weary with the race, Refocus. Take your attention off the distractions (whatever they might be) and
get back on track.
I hope the six things above will encourage you and remind you that you are in the race of your life and you can win!
