“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

That is a great choice for this Good Friday. Very powerful.
Today it was as if I was reading this verse for the first time as the words” who for the JOY set before him endured the cross”.
Oh wow. The joy! What a reminder!
