Hebrews Quote by John Eldredge
““Jesus lived the way he did in this world, for this world, because his hope was set beyond this world; that is the secret of his life. “Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he’s there, in the place of honor, right alongside God” (Hebrews 12:2 THE MESSAGE).””
