“We love because He loves us first.” 1 John 4:19
Maybe you feel alone in whatever race you are running? You might feel like there is no one on earth cheering for you. Be encouraged that Jesus is waiting at the finish line cheering you on. When you fall He is shouting for you to get back up and keep going. He knows you can overcome any trial you face with Him. Jesus loves you and He is on your team. He wants to cheer for you as you finish your race.
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. “ Hebrews 12:1-2 NLT
