Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. – Philippians 3:12
You are not perfect, but you are forgiven!
Following Jesus is not always easy. We are called to trust Him when life feels impossible, to love even those who stand against us, and to live holy lives when our own selfish desires try to pull us away. Yet through every challenge, we do not give up.
The Strength of Christ’s Forgiveness
We keep pressing on because we have experienced the love of Jesus in powerful ways. We know the strength of His forgiveness and the peace of His presence. He has transformed our lives, welcomed us into His family, and secured our future in His perfect plan.
Held Secure in God’s Love
Though we may struggle with sin, wrestle with our past, or feel weak in our faith, Jesus never lets go of us. His love is unshakable, and nothing can separate us from His care.
Keep Moving Forward in Faith
So take heart and keep going. Hold on to the One who is already holding on to you. In Him, your hope is secure, your forgiveness is complete, and your future is filled with His promises.
