Jesus, the Author and finisher of our faith
Hebrews 12:2 says we are to look unto Jesus who is the author and finisher of our faith. Of all the heroes of faith mentioned He alone is the only one who authors, (originates as our leader) and finishes (completes and perfects our faith). By looking at Him, we look away from the things that would otherwise absorb our thinking. But there is more. This Jesus who lived a perfect life of faith has now come into our lives, indwelling us by Holy Spirit, and as we consider Him and yield to His faithfulness, we, too, live by faith in all arenas of our lives. I, personally, have found that there is hardly a time when I do not live by faith in the Son of God who loves me and gave Himself for me and you.
