	Description:		Listen to Today's Devotion The word race is from the Greek word agon, from which we get the word agony. The Christian’s race is not a jog but rather a demanding and grueling, and sometimes agonizing race. It takes a massive effort to finish strong. Likely you’ve noticed that many don’t. There are many on the side of the trail. They may come to church, but their hearts aren’t in the race. And unless something changes, their best work will have been their first work, and they will finish with a whimper. By contrast Jesus’ best work was his final work, and his strongest step was his last step. Our Master is the classic example of one who endured.
