"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God" Hebrews 12:1,2
The scripture verses above remind us of a "cloud of witnesses" urging us to finish our "race". This cloud of witnesses is composed of those believers mentioned in chapter 11 _ commonly referred to as the "hall of faith". Their faith in God's ability and power gave them the privilege of seeing impossible things happen. They are true heroes of faith. In our own lifetime, there are also a number of people that God would have used or perhaps is still using to help shape our lives into the form that God has purposed. They may not know it, but their life, dedication and example inspire us to achieve noble feats and to dream for great accomplishments. These people are what I call God's unsung heroes.
May we take time to reflect on those people that God has blessed our lives with, and thank them. They have impacted our lives, and left lifetime impressions in our hearts. Let us praise the Lord for such blessing.
