You need perseverance
The Christian race requires perseverance, which is essential for obtaining what is promised (Hebrews 10:35-39), and endurance, which is crucial for reaching the finish line (Hebrews 12:1-2). They are both translations of the Greek word for patience, ὑπομονή (hupomonē), which literally means "to stay under" or "to stay the course".
Christian endurance is strengthened by facing and overcoming challenges rather than avoiding them (Romans 5:3-4). That doesn't mean looking for problems: problems will be looking for us!
Marathon runners know that there are many obstacles in the race, and they do not let difficulties discourage them when they arise.
读经计划介绍
The Bible compares the Christian life to a race in Hebrews 12:1. Unfortunately, many people approach it as if it were a sprint, in which a quick start counts, or a middle-distance race to run smoothly. The real comparison is with a marathon, where various things and people are trying to slow us down or stop us. We must approach the race with the right mindset and with the knowledge that God provides us with the means to go all the way. What a tragedy it would be to abandon the race when victory is certain!
