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.
(Hebrews 12:2)
Pray
You are the source of my strength and my hope. As I journey through life, I pray that I will always fix my eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of my faith. Help me to keep my focus on Him, regardless of the challenges and distractions that come my way. In moments of doubt and fear, I ask for the grace to remember that Jesus endured the cross and overcame the grave, so that I may have eternal life in Him.
Help me to lay aside every weight and sin that hinders me, and to run with endurance the race that is set before me. May Your Holy Spirit empower me to persevere, and may I always keep my gaze fixed on the love and sacrifice of Jesus. In His name, I pray for the strength and faith to follow Him wholeheartedly.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
