Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us. (Hebrews 12:1)
God has great plans and eternal rewards for you. However, you can miss out on them if you allow yourself to be weighed down by the cares of this world and by sin. What is holding you back from the upward call of God? What is keeping you from remaining faithful? Consider how you are spending your time. Identify where you are wasting it and how you could instead use that time to seek God and serve Him. ~ Jeff M Newman
