Hebrews 12:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
11 Punishment never makes us happy at the time when we receive it. No, the pain makes us sad. But later we know that the punishment has taught us good things. It helps us to live in a right way that gives us peace in our minds.
12 So be strong as servants of God! If your hands feel weak, lift them up! If your knees are not strong, stand up straight! 13 Walk straight in front of you, step by step! Your example will help other Christians to serve God well. People who cannot walk well will not become worse and fall down. Instead, their legs will become strong again.[a]

- 12:13 Our life as Christians is like a journey. We need to walk strongly as we serve God. When we feel weak, we must be brave and continue to walk well. If the stronger Christians serve God well, then weaker Christians will copy their example. The weak Christians will become strong and serve God well too.
