"I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
Hebrews 12:1
The arrow was placed in the design to show direction. There are moments in life we find ourselves in situations where we are seeking direction, why not let your creator govern your footsteps. Let’s progress towards the eternal prize.
Allow God to direct you during this season. He will make a way he will be your guide.
God can use people to accomplish His purpose.
The insight is to encourage you as we run the race of faith we have to endure. This is building an enduring quality to look beyond the temporal things but setting our eyes on the eternal. (derived from Pastor Chuck Smith)
In making the Endurance Desing we decided to place cross in the flag because God kept reminding me that the race I am running is a race of faith. In return I want to remind you through Gods word to keep enduring even when life gets Hard.

As I have been reminded this year through Hebrews12:1-2, we are all running a race. So of us are letting go of things or people that hinder our communion with God. This will help us develop a discipline to love God above all. It may be painful, some of us are suffering well, some of us are pacing the way for others, and some of us are just getting ready to run this race. If you have physically ran a race you know the process it takes to physically, and mentally run. The highs and lows, the training, the proper foods to intake. There is so much that takes place in preparation to run a race.
In this race of faith, there are moments when our past will surface, the triggers the unpleasant guilt/ shame to move forward. We all have a past, we might go through a season of where we still carry some type of shame, but in Christ we can find forgiveness, restoration, and Hope. This is the race we ought to endure and press on.
✝️
With this said, the inspiration is simply to not give up even when life gets Hard! Keep your eyes on JESUS! The author and perfector of faith. He heals, He restores, and He Has a plan for your life! Endure my brethren!
Jesus Christ gave it all for you and me! We can lean on the Hope in Jesus Christ. So, I encourage you strip off and let go of people, or things that hinder your walk with him. He is zealous for a communion with you, and desires for you to run this race alongside you.
YOU are not alone!
Trust me this race is not joke, Jesus said it himself, it is not an easy walk, and when everything hurts you push through! Always, continue to press forward, run with endurance, don’t give up! and know who the real champion is. He paid it all for you, His name is Jesus.
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Philippians 3:14
“The Endurance Desing has a cross in the flag because God was reminding me of the race I'm running is a race of faith, and I want to remind you to keep enduring even when life gets Hard. Thank you for reading and stay blessed. “
