Hebrews 12:1-2 (ESV)
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
Our race is our time on earth, the wilderness journey. If we persevere in the obedience of faith, we shall overcome the world. If we fall in the wilderness of the world, we will not reach His throne.
We travel with others, yet we each journey alone as we walk in His Spirit, with Him leading the way.
