Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. — Hebrews 12:1

 Few experiences compare to the difficulty and thrill of mountain climbing. Participants in this endurance and competence test enjoy comparing peaks and exchanging stories. When European mountaineers get together to share tales, they frequently talk about crossing a certain tomb on the way to a well-known summit. He Died Climbing and a man's name are written on the marker. 

Mountain climbing is a metaphor for living a life of faith in my opinion. We are to keep climbing the ladder of life—learning more about God, deepening our relationship with Christ, strengthening our resistance to temptation, and moving forward in sharing the gospel with the unreached.

In the words of the Hebrews author, "Let us run with endurance." The phrase "with endurance" can also mean "with perseverance," or more frequently, "to the end." 

Such a man of God was Joshua. He started his "climb" in Egypt and finished it in the Promised Land. He achieved amazing victories. According to Joshua 24:31, "Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua." Joshua continued to exhort Israel to serve God faithfully to the end of his life (v. 23). 

Help us to serve You faithfully, Lord Jesus. May we continue to climb all the way to the end.

As we progress higher, faith grows stronger. I want to reach the highest point and catch a glimpse of the glory that shines; however, I won't stop praying until I reach heaven: "Lord, lead me on to higher ground."
