Run Your Race

Good morning Brothers. Happy Sunday! Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Thank God for waking you up this first day of the week. God loves you. I love you. Take a moment to smile! Your smile could warm someone’s heart towards you today. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.(1 John‬ ‭3‬:‭23‬). Let’s sing, Come, all Christians, be committed to the service of the lord; Make your lives for him more fitted, Tune your hearts with one accord. Come into His courts with gladness, Each his sacred vows renew, Turn away from sin and sadness, Be transformed with life anew. God's command to love each other Is required of every one; Showing mercy to one another mirrors His redemptive plan. In compassion He has given of His love that is divine; On the cross sins were forgiven; Joy and peace are fully thine! This morning’s verse is from Hebrews 12:1. Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. What's slowing you down and holding you back? Today, make the decision to throw it off-and run. A shared faith is a strong faith! Look for ways to cultivate connections-for conversation, accountability, and biblically-grounded encouragement. And yet, we don't just throw off things that entangle us and sit down. The rest of the verse says, Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. The call is to keep moving forward, no matter how tough the journey may seem. Guided by grace and fueled by faith, we can press on. We can run the race He's set before us. God loves you. Have a blessed day.
