2025 is winding up and a new year is around the corner. There are so many new adventures and challenges yet to come. I am blessed to share them all with all.
I have been passing on some notable quotable of late, but will be taking things in another direction. But stay with me as I share on things from my life with Christ.
“Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. 13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:12–14, ESV).
Dearest Christian, this is our encouragement to continue the race set before us into glory. Christ took hold of us through redemption, and we thus take hold of Christ through pressing forward in the faith. Leave behind our past mistakes and shame, we daily race to the goal, which is union with Christ.
Time spent in the study of the Scriptures. Prayer. Praising the Lord in song. Fasting. Silence and solitude. Such things are channels of grace that energize us for the race.
The end of the race is not the starting line of conversion; rather, the race is daily moving toward glory and the resurrection at the second appearing of Christ.
See you at the finish line.
Godspeed
