"Run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the source and perfecter of our faith."
In the midst of difficulty, we should work hard at focusing on Jesus. The storms and trials of life are intended to keep us focused and directed on the author of life. When struggle takes us away from Christ, we know that we are not responding correctly to it.
This chapter teaches that all struggle is discipline. Discipline from God is intended to make us better. It is done in love and has our ultimate good in mind. Even though it is always painful, it is also purposeful. Do we trust God with the difficulties in our lives?
Tough but true.
