“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” (Phil. 3:13, 14).

“One thing” includes four simple pieces of advice:

  • Forget what is behind – we cannot change our past, so receive grace from God and move on with Him
  • Strain toward what is ahead – God has an amazing life ahead for you as you trust him and take steps of faith
  • Press on toward the goal to win the prize – the prize is knowing Jesus!
  • God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus – Let’s continue to look forward to heaven, where we will live eternally with Christ. Our life on this earth is only temporary.

Four simple statements of advice, that when applied, will change your life!
