But one thing I do: hforgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14I press on toward the goal for ithe prize of the upward jcall of God in Christ Jesus. 15Let those of us who are kmature think this way, and if in anything lyou think otherwise, mGod will reveal that also to you.
