Oh,
that we might know the LORD! Let us press on to know him!" (Hosea 6:3 NLT)
As
a result, I can really know Christ and experience the mighty power that
raised him from the dead. I can learn what it means to suffer with him,
sharing in his death, so that, somehow, I can experience the resurrection from the dead! I
don't mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I
have already reached perfection! But I keep working toward that day when
I will finally be all that Christ Jesus saved me for and wants me to
be. No,
dear brothers and sisters, I am still not all I should be, but I am
focusing all my energies on this one thing: Forgetting the past and
looking forward to what lies ahead, I strain to reach the end of the race and receive the prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us up to heaven. (Philippians 3:10–14 NLT)
