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 sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
3Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.
