There is no great future for any people whose faith has burned out. –Jones
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14
When Job found himself on hard times he didn’t give up; he got up, and went on. When Paul found himself in adversity, he didn’t give up; he got up, and went on. When Jesus faced the Cross he didn’t give up; He got up on the Cross, and He went on to conquer death, hell, and the grave for you and me.
Paul, a man very familiar with suffering, challenges us with his witness, “I press toward the mark…” So, when Satan attacks you don’t give up; get, up, and go on. When someone you hold dear chooses flesh over the Father, don’t give up; get up, and go on. When it seems all is lost and you’re all alone, don’t give up; get up, and go on.
