4-Apr-12: Hebrews 12:1-3
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely,
* and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,2looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of* the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.
3 Consider him who endured such hostility against himself from sinners,
* so that you may not grow weary or lose heart.
“……and you say we can run FASTER holding onto each other?”
“Oh, pant, oh rant, oh smattering cant” friends called to each other up the hill.
“Oh, smartee, oh lordee, oh paining in the bootee is weuns,”screeched the questers.
“Oh, hushee ye, saveee ye breathees ye, “called down Big Bluesy Fly in thrill.
“Know ye not, if ye pushees each to’other, ye gets to running faster, ye besters!”
