The Good Race

But none of these things move me;

nor do I count my life dear to myself,

so that I may finish my race with joy,

and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus,

to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

~Acts 20:24~

. . . let us run with patience the race that is set before us . . .

~Hebrews 12:1~

I returned, and saw under the sun,

that the race is not to the swift,

nor the battle to the strong . . .

but time and chance happeneth to them all.

~Ecclesiastes 9:11~

I have fought the good fight,

I have finished the race,

I have kept the faith.
