I Press On

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. … I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 3:12, 14)

There is no neutral, but always going forward.

There is no complacency, but always striving.

There are no shortcuts, but always straining.

There is no baggage, but always something new.

There is no regression, but always progression.

There is no relaxing, but always gripping tightly.

There is a reward—an eternal reward—which I eagerly long to receive.
