I want only the perfection that comes from faith in Christ….Not that I have become perfect : I have not yet won…….…I am trying to capture the prize for which Christ captured me
Philippians 3:8-14

To desire earnestly and to offer the whole self in its entirety is to attain. The rest follows as night follows day. Troubles and trials there will be in abundance, pains, problems, and much besides will be encountered along the way of the totality committed. These are but stepping-stones in the river of life, each to be approached with faith and sure confidence of My power to hold and progress. Only desire the Father's will in all things. So will you be brought to a safe issue in all that it is given you to undertake for yourself and for those whose welfare is entrusted to your care.

Seek the peace and the power of My Presence in all things and at all times. Herein is safety and certainly in action. Entertain no doubts or uncertainties, no looking back or recrimination for commitments made. Commit your past as well as your present to My saving fulfilling love. And you will receive that perfection which is laid up for all who walk in faithfulness, rejoicing in the joy of the perfection of all creation.
