Christians may sometimes give the impression that if one comes to faith in Jesus Christ, life will cruise on by smoothly. Not so, said the writer of Hebrews, who likened our earthly journey to a lifelong marathon. God has the course marked out for us, and we can navigate through it empowered by His Spirit. We still have to do the running, though, observes Alistair Begg—and to do so will require inspiration, preparation, determination, and consideration. Have you entered the race?
1Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and wsin which clings so closely, and xlet us run ywith endurance the race that is zset before us, 2looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, awho for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising bthe shame, and cis seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
3dConsider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or efainthearted.
