Keep Going!

For you sports-minded types, this is one of the most inspirational illustrations of perseverance and encouragement I have ever come across. It's a little long (6+ minutes) but well worth it.



Jesus persevered and so should you.

It is also probably safe to assume that Brock wouldn't have gotten as far as he did without the encouragement (yelling!) by his coach. God created us to be in fellowship with one another and the video just goes to show how encouragement from others can go a long way in helping us to carry out the work that God has for us...

Hebrews 12:1-3
1Therefore, 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. 2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
