“not that I have already
attained, or am already perfected; but I press on that I may lay hold for that
which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.” -Philippians 3:12
In coming to Ignite, one of my
friends gave me the verse Hosea 6:3 for this year, which says: “Let us know,
let us press on to know the Lord.” And honestly I think it so perfectly fits
this year and what the Lord has been teaching me. I don’t have it all figured
out and it’s a very obvious thing that I haven’t achieved perfection. But yet, I
press on to know the Lord and I continue in my goal of conforming to the image
of Christ. I press on to know and grab hold of all that Christ has for me. The
last thing I would ever want to do in this life is never really walk in all
that He has planned for me. My God is ever constant, He does not change and He
is always good. Thus, I must be content no matter where the Lord has me and
through it all I have to fight to keep my eyes fixed on Jesus and continue to
press on to the goal of knowing Christ. No matter my ever changing feelings, emotions,
and desires, I have to remember that He doesn’t change and press on to know
that Jesus.
