“I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14
Throughout history, in times of turmoil and discomfort, our faith has provided the foundation for recovery. In Philippians 3, Paul tells us how he chose to live life: “Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” 13-14.
Moving forward means moving on. I look forward to each day as a new opportunity to start anew. We must strive for excellence in all that we do for the Lord. The success of our students is our #1 goal at all times. We all must continue to grow in Kingdom Education and God’s purpose for Mandarin Christian School.
I’ve always been energized by the motto: “Onward and upward” your course plan today, seeking new heights as you walk Jesus’ way; heed not past failures, but strive for the prize, aiming for goals fit for His holy eyes.
God continues to give Christians opportunities to move forward.
Nevertheless, to the degree that we have comprehended and already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us be of the same mind. God is and will always be our STIMULUS, IF WE JUST BELIEVE AND KEEP HIS WORD IN OUR HEARTS.
May God continue to deliver us.
