Chapter 6 ended with a question for all of us. Fundamentally, now that we know what it means to follow Christ, and what it calls for, will we, too, leave? I pray our answer is that we will not trade the things of this world for our relationship with our God. That we will not fall away, enticed by whatever it is that draws us away from him. That we would finish the race well, not slowly drifting off course. That we will endure the challenges up until the end. The challenges change, and both our enemy and our flesh present different things to turn us away from Jesus as the years progress.
