Hebrews 12:2
Amplifedβ¦.
(Looking away from all that will distract us and) focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith (the first incentive for our belief and the one who brings our faith to maturity), who for the joy
(of accomplishing the goal) set before him
endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God (revealing his deity, his authority, and the completion of his work).
*** JESUS DID NOT GET DISTRACTED FROM HIS MISSION TO SAVE US BY SHAME AND PAIN HE WENT THROUGH. ***
*** HE FOCUSED ON THE JOY OF ACCOMPLISHING THE GOAL SET BEFORE HIM. ***
*** HE ENDURED THE CROSS TO GET IT DONE. ***

*** WE ARE TO LOOK AWAY FROM ALL THAT DISTRACTS US. ***
*** WE ARE TO FOCUS OUR EYES ON
JESUS. ***
*** HE IS THE AUTHOR AND PERFECTER OF OUR FAITH. ***
*** HE BRINGS OUR FAITH TO MATURITY. *

*** DO NOT HATE YOUR BROTHER BUT LOVE YOUR BROTHER LIKE JESUS TEACHES
YOU. ***
*** GET YOUR EYES OFF EVERYTHING THAT DISTRACTS YOU FROM JESUS CHRIST. ***
