The only way to be sure of the prize is to fix our eyes on Jesus. We’re not promised an easy road ... we’re travelling in His footsteps. The way may be difficult. People around us may be discouraging, and we might suffer, but that’s how it was for our Jesus. He ran this course before us. He has been this way and brought it to successful completion when He died on the cross. Our job is to fix our eyes on Jesus. That means to let Him fill our thoughts and imagination day by day, rather than our problems and circumstances. If our eyes are anywhere else, when the going gets tough we’ll grow weary, lose heart and feel like giving up. Father, thank You for calling me to be part of what You’re doing today. Forgive me for the times when I’ve grown weary and discouraged. By Your grace, I want to finish well. So, today I give You everything that hinders me from being strong and courageous in the race set before me. Thank You for Jesus who’s gone before. I choose to fix my eyes and my thoughts on Him. Amen.
