Life with Jesus is a journey—a process. Paul makes it clear: He has not yet reached the goal. But he presses on to know Jesus better and to be transformed by Him, especially with a view toward life in the perspective of eternity.
In all this, one thing is perfectly clear: It is not Paul who holds on, but Jesus who holds him. And that is precisely why Paul can move forward with courage. The same is true for us: Because Jesus holds us fast, we can hold on to Him.
For Reflection:
Who is a role model in the faith for you? How can this role model be an encouragement to you?
