Jesus ⚜️

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,⚜️

There is nothing worse than tripping on a rock when running a steady sprint. We wind up with road rash, shattered egos, and in some cases, broken bones. Sin will damage our spirits in the same way, making it difficult to get up and finish our race. God directs our attention to a ‘great cloud of witnesses’ for guidance. Their experiences help us gain wisdom and become alert to road snares.⚜️

Dear Lord, we are thankful for Your Word. You have provided many witness accounts to shed light on obstructions we may face. We will live by their example and finish the race to You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen. ⚜️
