Pressing Toward The Goal

Philippians 3:12 Not that I have already obtained it or have already become perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.


After the past couple of weeks, we definitely feel like this verse sums it up fairly well. As our calendars fill up with tasks, deadlines, and commitments, we are overwhelmed with excitement that we are really living out the calling that God placed on out hearts. Although we sometimes find ourselves lost throughout the process, we keep pressing toward the goal.

We have sent in our prayer cards to be printed on Monday, which will turn our very cool thanks to our friend Jami Shull who designed them. We will be handing them out after service the end of April when our video testimony is shown. Which is all such a blessing for us with the timing. God is all about timing. We have been busy building up relationships and working out all the details in preparing our mission.

Now, we are working on trying to manage our time wisely. Cutting out all the extras that don't pertain to our goal. This is extremely hard because we are both type A people. We both want to do everything for everyone and are always willing to take on the next task even if we are juggling 5 others. Also we are in need of setting a routine "date" night because we know that the enemy will strike our relationship first. So for now, we are on the defense.
