The Long Haul....

Achieving the life you've always wanted can sometimes make us feel like the fella in the picture on this post.

Life can beat us up and make us feel defeated.

Last week, Victoria helped the class focus on how suffering plays a role in transforming us into the people God wants us to be.

No one likes to suffer, but it is a part of life. As we wrap up our class this week, we're going to focus on the long view of our spiritual journey with Christ.

Just as our response to suffering tests our faith, so do times where we face tough choices, times where we face success, and times where we face impossible odds!

The challenges and triumphs of life can be stumbling blocks or leverage points on our spiritual journey toward the life we've always wanted.

Are you committed to finishing the race of life well? What is worth sacrificing or enduring in order to finish well for you?

What can we do to spur each other on to finish well?
