I'm sure we all know that life can be challenging and there will come set backs. Today we'll talk about the ability to keep moving forward or what we might call enduring. God's heart is for us to become like Him in every area of our life, but we know there will come failures and hardships because we live in a fallen world. We can be thankful for the work of Jesus and who He is us.
Paul gives us hope as he talks about the greatest aspect of his life is now knowing Jesus and what knowing Jesus does is empowers him to keep moving forward and forgetting what once was. Strength is often produces by our ability to learn and grow from our former mistakes and hardships. We'll look at Philippians 3, where Paul gives a great summary of his purpose and priority in life.
I'll also share a great illustration from the life of Author Max Lucado that will help us understand the importance of a strong foundation in our life. We must look at what we anchor our lives to and whether or not it'll hold up in the storms of life. I'll also share some lyrics from two of my favorite songs. The songs are Glorious Day by Passion and Cornerstone by Hillsong. They both talk about Jesus being our foundation and hope.
