Are We Running This Race With Purpose?
From a Child Prospective By Mackenzie Ware, 12 years old. ( This is what she received from Sunday message in her own words)
Hebrews 12:1-3
Are We Running This Race With Purpose?
We need to move with a purpose if you want to win this race. We need to be purpose builders and move with a purpose, and if we have to run, run lighty.
We need do be purpose builders. What does it mean to be a purpose builder? When you are a purpose builder, you build on top of things with a purpose. We all have a goal or a dream, and instead of just thinking about how you could never do it make that your purpose and build on the surface you have. There are going to ups and downs and cracks and bumps, but if you want to be a purpose builder you need to think positively, believe in yourself, and know who you are. With the things you already see the finish line. And we don’t have to run as fast as the person in front or behind you, but you do have to run with a purpose because you are still trying to win the race.
We need to travel lighty If we have to run.
In a race you can’t be carrying all this weight and expect to win. We need to let some stuff go if we want all this weight gone, we need to tell the truth, and ask for forgiveness to get some of that weight off or it will become a burden. If it’s hard to let some stuff go, just remember that prize when you get to the finish line. Jesus is at the end waiting for you to finally make it, and his love will help you take off all that weight. So we need to run with purpose
In order to win this race we must move with purpose. We need to travel lighty, and move with purpose.
