I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 3:14).
The valiant apostle Paul had served God in
all good conscience (Acts 23:1), even in
error persecuting Christians. Upon learning
the truth, he reversed directions from a
persecutor to a proclaimer of Christianity as
the only way to heaven.
Upon becoming a servant of Christ, Paul
never looked back. He “kept on keeping on”
toward the goal of heaven eternal. He neared
the end of his life with confidence that God
would give him a crown of righteousness (2
Timothy 4:6-8).
Let us follow Paul’s example (1 Corinthians
11:1) as he followed Christ, without wavering.
Let us press toward the glorious prize.
