Pressing toward the mark

Good afternoon! I don't know about all of you but it's COLD here in Maine :) I'm not complaining by no means because I do live here after all :) As we make our way into 2016, what are some of the marks you are pressing towards?

Philippians 3:13 and 14
"Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and the reaching forth unto those things which are before,
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."

As I was reading this passage this morning I thought back on last year as well as towards this year. God has been so good to us, he has allowed us to be a part of a work that is going forward. I'm so grateful for that privilege I have, and I know God has great plans for my husband, my family and for myself. See, God gave us things to press toward -
A closer relationship with him
A better prayer life
A better relationship with your spouse
A healthier body
and the list goes on and on.

What is your mark?
What have you decided you need to press toward?
Friend, with God's help and with determination You Can and Will reach that mark that has been set before you.

Happy 2016!! Reach for that mark and have NO regrets!
