Advent Week 1
Hebrews 12:1 – 3
1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 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. 3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
We are surrounded by such a great crowd of witnesses.
Reflect: Consider those who have had an influence upon your life; who have cheered you along in the race of life. Give thanks for those who have encouraged you along the way.
Pray: For those preparing for the Olympics, especially the athletes’ encouragers – their coaches and family members. And for the More than Gold Homestay programme offering hospitality to athletes’ families.
