This One Thing

Bible Text: 1 Corinthians 9:26, Philippians 3:13-14, Genesis  45:4-8 | Presenter: Rev. James Destine | This one thing.

Selfish

What do I need to change?

But this one thing I do!

You!

Nothing will change unless you change.

Philippians 3:13
Philippians 3:13-14

Forget what is behind.
If only….

“I distinctly remember forgetting it.”

Genesis 45:4-8
Philippians 3:13-14
13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

The only way you will be able to forget what is behind is to

Press on.

1 Corinthians 9:26

People who look at life as a privilege and not a as a plague.
Equal time
A new year gives you  the opportunity to

Bury the past  and move on. Get over it.
Reestablish worthwhile goals toward your life’s purpose
Set your priorities straight

Philippians 3:14

The secret to success in life is effective planning.

“If you face life casually you will become life’s casualty.

If you face this coming new year casually, you will become this new year’s casualty.
