My Verse today....But This One Thing I do:
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me. (Philipians 3 :13)
Isn't that a wonderful verse?
It's so easy sometimes to beat myself up and let go of regrets and mistakes.
And I don't always mean the big things ;sometimes it's those silly, little everyday happenings and minute decisions where it would have been very nice to have the foresight of hindsight....."why didn't I stop to pick up chicken feed when I drove right by yesterday?" or "why did I make such an insensitive comment?" or "why didn't I plant my garden last week?" These are small things in reality but if I allow them to take root they can rob me of peace.
So a long time ago I claimed the verse above as I keep pressing on
where some day I will recieve the prize.
