1 Corinthians 9:26 “Therefore I do not run without a definite goal; I do not flail around like one beating the air [just shadow boxing].
With Racing Perspective!
It’s a “finish” or “dead” line, depending on perspective.
Either way it’s the same symbol marking the ground.
What then do you see? Does one grasp your gaze?
Which view consumes you? Coming Dread or great Joy?
As such, make your choice before waking each Day.
Yea, press on the finish till heard is, “Well done!”
As HIServant re-choosing the lens of Scripture to daily look through and run with till CHRIST comes,

It’s no small task to stay focused in this Hour.
To keep moving at the most blessed pace which stops and helps others as well as flies highest.
To finish our own personal race for the LORD thus requires an engaged, racing perspective!
So! To fully complete the course set before us, we must be fully sensitive to HIS SPIRIT’s leading.
Eternal Life awaits us there at HIS finish line while, for all who reject HIM, it is a “dead” line for certain.
So whenever the line is drawn, approach it with HIS gift to us: a living and zealous faith in CHRIST — alone!
So whether it’s the “finish” line or a “dead” line; it depends on having faith in CHRIST…
…which determines WHICH direction one is running. So!
Let us serve with 2 Timothy 4:7 at the forefront of our minds.
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith!”
Amen and amen!
