I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14
I was reading yesterday of a missionary, Mary Slessor. Her favorite missionary was David Livingstone. He has a quote that would be good for you and I to take heed to. He said, “I don’t care where we go as long as we go forward.”
Are you pressing forward for the Lord? Are you growing in God’s grace or have you become stagnant? Many will encourage you fall back into sin. Many would love to see you back at the bar, drinking the devil’s juice. Many would love to have you back partying with the devil’s music. Many would rejoice in having you out of church, living for self, miserable like them. Child of God—don’t give them the time of day or you will be right back doing what God saved you from in the first place! PRESS FORWARD!!
