DAILY?READINGS: Ruth 2; Isaiah 42; 2 Corinthians 2
This one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13b-14
Some years ago in a seaside town, in the north of New Zealand, a man untied his dinghy and set out to row home. Unbeknown to him, someone had tied another rope from the dinghy to the wharf. In his inebriated state he kept rowing, unaware that he was going nowhere. Maybe as a Christian you are still “tied to the wharf.” Start reading God’s Word, praying, and meeting with God’s people. Show forgiveness for past grievances and untie from the wharf. —J. Fleming
Go forward, Christian soldier, beneath His banner true:
The Lord Himself, thy Leader, shall all thy foes subdue. —L. Tuttiet
