It's been said that vision is one of three big things that people need from a leader, answers the question "where are we going". The other two are answers to the questions; "what should I do" and "how am I doing". Jesus stands out as the leader in front and we are his followers. Hebrews 12:1-2 says, "throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith..." Here's some scriptures to keep the vision while running the race.
