There were only six runners that the young athlete could see ahead. Plus, it was only half a mile left to the finish line. But it was uphill. That is when Dr. Tim Levendusky’s P.E. coach imparted the words he would never forget “You can catch them!” Like the decorated runner Glen Cunningham, Tim learned to keep going despite his weariness. Like Jesus Christ, all of us, “for the joy set before,” can endure! As you go on in faithful continuance, these reassuring reminders from Hebrews 12 will breathe new energy into your race.
