How Can We?

Hebrews 12:1-3

​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, 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.  

Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

​Lord Jesus, can we live as you lived?

 

Can we walk these roads as you walked them?

Can we love as you love?

Can we show grace and mercy?

Can we forgive those who have wronged us?

Can we hand everything over in your resurrection power?

Can we trust you to come in judgement to put all the wrongs to right?

Lord, you are the author and perfecter of our faith. 

Refine us, hone us and shape us into your chosen people.

Lord, where else can we go!

You alone have the words of eternal life.

Amen.
