Hebrews 12:1,2 Words that stand out for me - witnesses surrounding us ... lay aside every encumberance ... run with endurance ... fixing our eyes on Jesus ... endured the cross, despising the shame ... sat down “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, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:1,2

Words that stand out for me -

witnesses surrounding us …
lay aside every encumberance …
run with endurance …
fixing our eyes on Jesus …
endured the cross, despising the shame …
sat down
