Hebrews 12:1–2 (Eugene Peterson, The Message)
Do you see what this means—all these pioneers who blazed the way, all these veterans cheering us on? It means we’d better get on with it. Strip down, start running—and never quit! No extra spiritual fat, no parasitic sins. Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we’re in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he’s there, in the place of honor, right alongside God.
In what ways did you experience seeking today?
In what ways did you experience finding today?
PRAY
O God,
we pray for direction.
We pray for the road ahead.
Thanks to you for being with us along the way.
Prepare us to come home and share your love with others.
We name our needs, our concerns to you...
Be our vision along the way.
Light our path.
Walk with us
until we arrive at home,
at rest in you at the last.
Amen.
