Theme: Run with Jesus

Verse: 2 Corinthians 5:7: Indeed, our lives are guided by faith, not by sight.

Have you ever been in a large race where they have pacers? Those are people who train to run a very consistent pace throughout so racers have help meeting their time goal. If you want to finish in the time that person has on the sign they hold, you just stay with them side by side through the race and they will get you there.

We all need pacers in our lives. Someone to show us the ropes in a new job or new exercise routine. That is especially true in our faith walk. The pacer is Jesus. All He asks of us is to run with Him. Matthew 22:37 is “pace” on Jesus’ “sign”. “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”

Have a great week!
