A word of encouragement to remember

A word of encouragement to remember:

"Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entagles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." (Heb. 12:1-3)

When our hearts are weary and our bodies are faint, remember that Jesus Christ left heaven, came to earth, and died a horrible criminals death (though He was innocent) all for you. He was resurrected, defeating death, all for you. He loves you. He cares for you. And you must focus on Him, for He will carry you through anything and all things.
