Philippians 3:12-14

Straining Toward the Goal

12Not that I have already aobtained this or bam already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. 13Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: cforgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14I press on toward the goal for dthe prize of the upward ecall of God in Christ Jesus.
