Pressing towards the Mark ....

Hello everyone. As you are all aware, we are in the the month of August now and we have five months to go before the year 2008 comes to an end.
As I was reflecting on this and making plans, I am reminded of of what Apostle Paul said in the book of Philippians, "forgetting those things that are behind and reaching forward unto those things that are before, I press towards the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."
So I am not giving up just yet, there are a few things that I want to do before the year ends and one of them is completing my bachelor in ministry papers. As a servant of God, it is paramount that I be well equipped so that I can carry out my master's work well on earth and thus bring glory to Him. Therefore eventhough I am a bit 'rusty' up there (in my brains), I am determined to move into first gear and continue on my papers.
So guys, if you have, just like me, set out this year full of determination to accomplish your goals but somehow lost the zeal along the way, do not give up just yet. There are still five months to go, forget the past and lets together, individually and as a church press towards the mark, so that our dear Lord and Master , Jesus Christ will be glorified through us. Amen!
