Lets study the Word to see what Paul thought when he fell short of perfection. Did he make excuses or attempt to justify his failure? Did he say, Im only human. Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I PRESS ON, THAT I MAY LAY HOLD of THAT for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I PRESS TOWARD the GOAL for the prize of the UPWARD call of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:12-14). Stop looking back, rather, look forward and press toward the goal of the upward call. CHRIST Jesus has made it all possible...He laid hold of it all...now press!
