Strain Forward To What Lies Ahead‏

Php 3:13 Brothers, I do not consider myself to have embraced it yet.
But this one thing I do:
Forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,
Php 3:14 I keep pursuing the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly call in the Messiah Jesus.
(ISV)

Closing out the year and forgetting the things in it
Let us open the new year with a quickened spirit
Let us make real efforts to attain what God has laid out for us.
Let us embrace his word that has already gone out.
And Strain to fulfill his word in our lives.
