Faith Race

We are all on this track and  Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of [our] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. Heb 12:2
This race will take
Hard work
Determination
Motivation
Preparation
Training
Heb 12:1 Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
The enemy loves to discourage us, especially when we’re being used by the Lord for His Kingdom purposes. 
lets Throw off anything that hinders us including sin that gets us off track.  We are to run with perseverance the race that is marked out for us.
The remedy for persevering in our faith race is to …”fix our eyes on Jesus”.
