I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7
Paul was “weary in body, but strong in the hope of the Lord” as he ended his letter to Timothy. He shared a challenge for us to run the race before us with perseverance and hope. He also shared encouragement for us to guide others along the way. “At first glance, it would appear that the challenge is too great for us. However, Paul was careful to provide encouragement by recounting his own victorious example, reminding us that God is with us and that wonderful things await those who finish the course victoriously.”
— Wesley Bible Curriculum, August 5
