Let us run with perseverance

"And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,
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. "

Extract of Hebrews 12:1-2

I remember (the first part) of this saying. It was on the wall of the swimming complex in school. Very conveniently within eye view of those are running and panting, - very encouraging when we complete our routine 3 rounds of 400 m jogs ("runs", really, we cannot take longer than only 2:20 per round), or as we run the 2.4 km for the NAPFA test.

Another quote on the wall of another building in school is this:

but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint
Isaiah 40:31

(:

I love my Fridays and Saturdays.
Hope to keep the same level of spirit on Tuesday-Thursday.
