Grace for your spirit August 24, 2015

Grace for your spirit
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 12:2

It should go without saying that when we are having trouble, we should look to Jesus for inspiration.  Note Jesus' plan to endure the pain and the shame.  For the joy set before Him He endured.  In other words, when we are in tough times, look ahead at the reward we will receive for faithfulness.  It carried Him, and it will also carry us.  Let's fix our eyes there.
