“Faith is in our mind as well as our hands and feet.” ~Asil Treblig
1. Let us throw off...
All distractions.
Sinful struggles.
2. Let us run hard...
With perseverance.
With direction.
3. Let us be focused...
On Jesus our Alpha and Omega.
Our model and example.
4. Let us endure hardship...
As discipline not punishment.
Discipline is good for us.
5. Let us be encouraged!
