The call is upward


After Philippians 3:12-4:1

A sound, or a voice, perhaps,
a movement in the heat
and soul and mind, gives
the first glimpse of the prize,
the first time we know
there’s a prize, its possession
a goal and a destination,
even if we do not fully
understand the goal, the destination,
and the journey required to reach
it, the precise steps of the journey
remaining unknown, steps guided
and steps taken in faith. All
we know is that the call is
upward.
