May we remain focused on what’s ahead, believing in His will for our lives and our work
Not that | have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:12-14 NIV
We all must continue to “Press On” in this life. As written in Philippians 5:12-14, “…take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me…. Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead…”. Let us not get focused on things of the past, thinking should have, could have, and would have, but let us consider the present and what God has gifted us this day. Embrace the now and make a difference in your life and that of others, leading and walking in the ways of Christ Jesus, our Lord.
Reflection from Let’s Read the Bible Together (John 7, John 8, & John 9)
“Then Jesus answered them, “My teaching is not mine but his who sent me. Anyone who resolves to do the will of God will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own. Those who speak on their own seek their own glory; but the one who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and there is nothing false in him.” John 7:16-18 NRSV
Proverbs 19:21
No matter the thoughts or strategies we develop, what God has planned will always come to fruition.🙏🏽💚🦋🌈
May we remain focused on what’s ahead, believing in His will for our lives and our work, my friend.
