Running the Race

Uphill Racing at Purisima Creek

Hebrews 12:1 says, "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us."

Sometimes the Christian faith can be an uphill battle. But it is so much easier and fun when you are with other people. When trials and tribulations come, having a support group of brothers and sisters who to help will prove to be invaluable. God created us to be intimately related to one another hence the term "body of Christ."

When you are part of a group that is committed to throwing off all hindrances or anything that comes between you and God, you will run your race with even greater perseverance than on your own. Be in fellowship.
