Hello. It’s been a little while. It occurred to me that if I could shrink the time to publish a post, I’d probably do this more. That and if I had a sense that anyone actually read these, haha. Still waiting for my first comment… Anyway, I think I’m going to just do a screen shot for the actual poem, I’ve been sharing them that way for a while with people via text and such, and I love the ease. Not quite as sharp pixel-wise as I’d like, but hey, we perfectionists need to chill out on things like that.

This particular poem was me musing on Hebrews 12:1-3 before I went to a gathering where it was the sermon’s text. Hebrews 12 has long been a treasured chapter to me. When I was a young believer, I was captured by the first verses in particular; when I was finally reaching the end of my rope in 2018, it was the whole chapter and particularly the lengthy section on enduring hardship as discipline.

(Trechomen is the word in the Greek text for “Let us run” by the way…)
