"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us,and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith" (Heb. 12:1+2a).
In my mind, life is like a race. We are on the field running a race and those Christians who has graduated to heaven is in the grandstands cheering us on. In the time line of God's history, each generation run a link of a relay race. When a Christian dies, he or she has handed the baton off to someone else to run with and goes to sit in the grandstands to cheer for those who goes on behind them. Our dear sister, Robin has fought the fight and run the race. Now she has handed the baton off to us to run with, while she sits in the grand stands cheering us on. May we run the race with all that we have in her memory and to the glory of God.
Comforting hugs!
Sister Toni
