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, looking 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.

Hebrews 12:1-2

Amen and amen!
