Into the mountains we go. The Pyrenees will entertain us as we cheer these men up and over then down to the finish line or up to the finish line as it is today The author of Hebrews talks about a race for us as well.
Hebrews 12:1-2
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. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.I know our race can be like today's stage up hill all the way, but let us remain faithful to complete the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus. Forget all the sins and things that hinder us and continue on in the strength of the Lord. Have you noticed the sprinters and they are coming in for a sprint finish they start throwing off any water bottles they have left so that they are as lite and as fast as they can be.
Lord,
I pray for the people of these beautiful mountains. Lord, I pray that we will run our race so that your glory will be seen in the Pyrenees. As we leave Revel bless Église Évangélique Apostolique, and Église Évangélique Vie et Lumière as they preach your word on this day. Lord, I pray that these churches love each other with your love so that the world will desire you. Thank you for their faithfulness. Let only your truth be spoken today. Lord, we give you all the praise and adoration as we cross the finish line. We pray in the name of Jesus, the Truth. Amen.
