Run with Endurance

"Since we are surrounded by such a great crowd of witnesses, let us run with endurance the race marked out for us.  Looking unto Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith who for the joy set before Him endured the cross and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.  Consider Him who endured such opposition from sinful man so that we will not grow weary and lose heart (Hebrews 12:1-3)."
