Philippians 3- Perfect in Christ

12 Not that I have already obtained it or have already become perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.

13 Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead,

14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

What a prize, what a goal, what a calling: to be made in perfect Christ likeness.  That is our unattainable goal here on earth, yet we strive to allow the Holy Spirit to work within us and begin the transformation through His power.  What an majestic God we serve, who can transform a person like me, into perfection.

Thank You Lord for my salvation!  Give me strength, humility and power to walk in Your ways and to live Christ in every thing I do...
