"Dozens and hundreds and thousands of those who have gone before and who have finished the race by faith and surround us like a great cloud of witnesses…have gathered along the sidelines of our race and they hold out their wounds and their joys and give us the best high-fives we ever got: 'Go for it! You can do it. By faith you can finish. You can lay the weights down and the sins. By faith, by the assurance of better things hoped for, you can do it. I did it. And I know it can be done. Run. RUN!'" ~John Piper
