The Great Cloud of Witnesses
We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses looking on encouraging us to do the will of the Lord. We must not grow weary doing what is right. As we run with joy the race, we must run with all our might. We must lay all earthly things aside that would hold us down. We must claim the victory if we would win the crown.
