Hebrews 12:1-3

Let us, therefore, since we are surrounded by such a large crowd of witnesses, lay aside everything that hinders us, as well as the sin that so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race set before us. Let us focus on JESUS, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, disdaining its shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of GOD. Think about all he endured from sinful people who opposed him, and do not grow weary or lose heart.
