S-Hebrews 12:   (NIV)
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverancethe race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

O-this writers is encouragement us for believers why though they have experienced the joy of the lord inevitably will face trials.  Our joy and our strength come from the Lord.

A-  the application for me is to walk in the truth of this passage,  so I might be strong and joyful in good times and bad trusting in Christ ad my firm foundation .

P- r thanks you lord for today’s message, may it be sealed to my heart.  I pray for great faith and patient endurance,  in Jesus name, amen
