SV Football Pictures of the Week: “Pressing on Towards the Goal”

What is it about people that makes us so goal oriented? Maybe there’s a clue in our willingness to strive about who we are as people who seek to accomplish . . .

St. Paul wrote (Philippians 3:12-14):

“Not that I have already obtained all of this,

Paul continues, “nor that I have already been made perfect…”

“But I press on toward the prize. . .

“. . . to win the prize for which God has . . .”

“. . . called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”

Of course, we dare not use God’s Word only as inspirational quotes. Paul’s point in Philippians is that it’s only in a Cross-centered view of Christ and His good news that we can make sense of the goal-motivated longings of our heart.”

For those weary of pressing on and pursuing see this post . . .
