Faith is described as a race that requires endurance, focus, and community. We are called not simply to admire the examples of past believers, but to live out that same steadfastness in our own time. To do this, we must first be tenacious in our walk with Christ, laying aside sins and distractions that weaken us, and pressing on with determination even when life becomes difficult. Secondly, we are to be transfixed on Jesus, making Him the centre of our vision and the foundation of our joy, rather than being drawn away by temporary pleasures or discouraged by hardship. Finally, we are encouraged to be twisted together with Christ and His people, cultivating both a deep personal relationship with Him and meaningful bonds within the community of faith.
