No Matter What by Jason Cruise But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God. - Acts 20:24 Finish your race. Finishing, not starting, is the issue. Any one can start any thing. Who cares how well you start? Millions start. Dozens actually finish. No race worth running is without the unexpected. The profound mystery of being a Jesus follower is that what causes you to fall as you run, while you may think those collisions are failures, if offered to Him as violent acts of worship and learning, will at some point become trophies of His grace and glory in you as you continue to run. Christ ... in you ... is the hope of glory says the Scriptures. Though you may have scars and though your stride may be forever altered in the years ahead, remember my brother that no warrior comes home from the battlefield without scars. Those scars are not necessarily tangible, but they are wounds nonetheless. Whatever the case: run. For it is in running that you will eventually see His victory. Finish your race.
