"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge cloud 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." - Hebrews 12:1 (NLT)
Training and discipline entail intentional decisions. So we must be intentional with our thoughts and prayers. This is part of a spiritual discipline. We are to have renewed minds. That means throwing the weight of negative thoughts that slow us down, especially the lies the enemy throws at us that so easily trip us up. Only then can we run freely, doing what God has called us to do.
There have been so many Christians who have had victories in living the life of faith. Won't you be one?
Jesus said "I am the Vine." We are to abide in and wait on Him as our everything. As a sufferer of many illnesses, both physical and mental, I have learned much through seeking Him. Tune in every week for a word of encouragement with a Scripture from the perspective of one who has found significant strength and healing and wisdom from those Scriptures.
