Reflections On The Scripture: In life, we are spectators in a vast stadium, watched over by those who lived and loved God before us. They cheer us on as we seek to fulfill our divine purpose. Living faithfully is our race, and it is unique to each one of us. It is life's marathon that requires us to let go of the weights that slow us down. We must cast aside distractions, guilt, and sins that trip us up. We replace them with the armor of perseverance, bolstered with resolute determination. God's call to each of us is to embrace our personal journey, our unique course designed by His hand. This race isn't about being the fastest, but more about enduring. It's about running consistently, persistently, with your eyes fixed on the eternal prize—the invaluable and glorious presence of God Himself. Every step forward, each day lived in faith, brings us closer to that heavenly finish line. So, persevere. Run your race. For the course is set, the witnesses are watching, and God is waiting at the finish line with open arms.
