In the first two verses we have been encouraged to run our spiritual race with endurance, showing that we are going to have to go through things in this life that require patience, courage, and hope. So, in order to do that the writer says we must keep our eyes on Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith, in other words because salvation for you and me began with us surrendering to Jesus, and it ends with us being with Jesus, we don’t need to look to anything else for help but Jesus amen!
