Pressing on

After Philippians 3:12-14

It’s the one thing, 

pressing on, pressing

forward. It doesn’t

mean the past is

useless or lacks

meaning; the past

is what has shaped

me, it’s where I

come from, and what

happened there 

shaped the present

and the future. But

the point here is

not the past but

pressing on toward

the goal, the wreath

of laurel, the prize

for hearing and

heeding the call

upward. It’s

the one thing,

the one thing that

matters, the thing

that’s life itself.
