12 Not that I 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. 13 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, 14 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
Philippians 3:12-14 NIV
...That is the verse she gave me tonight...
A verse aptly spoken, wide and full of the grace of God.
Grace that covered and flowed over my heart and soul.
Wide with promise and hope of what is to come.
Even when I can't see it, nor know what it will be, it is wide with promise.
To forget what is behind me,
reach forward to what lies ahead,
press on towards the goal.
The goal of Christ Jesus.
But, I must step.
I must act.
I must make a choice.
He's there right beside me.
And, He's there beside you too.
...with arms open wide.
I will keep on the journey.
I will trust He is there, working behind the scenes even when I can't "see" Him.
Wide with Grace.
Wide with Promise.
Wide with Hope.
