The Finisher
If the excitement, motivation, and strength at the beginning of every race in life are retained, almost all racers will finish up with the same starting speed. But the reality is, even if the excitement and motivation are preserved, the strength of all racers get depleted along the track. Spiritual race is no difference. Many do lose faith with challenges of life; and failed to finish up as planned. In the race of faith, the author and the finisher of faith is the same Jesus. All who can relate with Him as the Author of faith can also retain Him as the Finisher. Challenges in life notwithstanding, Jesus Christ is bound to finish all that He started in every of His heralds. When it becomes difficult to understand how to finish, consistent reference to Christ's amazing work as Author is always sufficient. And since the Author is the same as the Finisher, there is no cause for alarm. Man should rather be preoccupied with praising God for all He's started or done.
