We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne.
Hebrews 12:2
As runners in the race of life, we must “fix our eyes on Jesus.” As we run, we must be looking at Him in faith. He is more than our example; He is our final destination. We must run toward Him with all our might, in the promise that we will be conformed to His image.
JESUS is the one who blazed the way, finished the race, paid for our sins, and is now seated in the place of highest honor and authority. WE LOOK TO HIM, not only as our example but as our source of STRENGTH.
KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS.
