Author note: I am pleased to announce that I have been accepted as a teacher for an on-line presence called Women Living Well Ministries, which is based in North Carolina. WLWM seeks to empower women to be disciples of Jesus and to assist them in roles of leadership in the church. I have been invited to record 5-minute teaching videos and share through the written word on different topics. This reflection is based on the first video that I recorded. I am excited to see what God has in store for me with this new adventure that has presented itself.
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. –Hebrews 12:1 (NLT)
Our lives are a beautiful gift from God. He created each of us unique and special, with no two of us exactly alike. On this earth, we are all running our own individual race, as the Lord leads us to the finish line. No two of our races are exactly alike, either. Being surrounded by a huge crowd of witnesses, we are encouraged to run the race God has given us with endurance.
