Which way are you running ?

Good morning everyone. Yes, we are all still here, the end of the world or the rapture did not happen on May 21^st as was erroneously predicted by a man who was sincere, but was sincerely wrong. Let us not be lulled to sleep however, because Jesus is coming back. We do not know the day or the hour but we need to be mindful of the days in which we live. We need to be watchful and to keep running the race to win. Run to God. Run to His Word the Bible. Run away from sins and habits that take you away from God and His Word. Run away from those who preach ‘another gospel’. Do you see how easy it was for people to be duped into believing what this man said? Do you also see how important it is for each of us to be grounded in the scriptures? Yes let’s keep running the race of faith and not give up. Run the race of faith as if your very life depended on it – because it does ! Let's all make sure we are running in the right direction.

Hebrews 12:1-3 (Message Bible) 

^1-3…all these pioneers who blazed the way, all these veterans cheering us on? It means we'd better get on with it. Strip down, start running—and never quit! No extra spiritual fat, no parasitic sins. Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he's there, in the place of honour, right alongside God. When you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item, that long litany of hostility he ploughed through. That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!

1 Corinthians 9 (New King James Version)

²⁴ Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.
