Like a child eager to grow, we are called to a spiritual maturity that involves a relentless pursuit of Christ. Paul uses the analogy of an athlete in a race, not competing against Christ, but striving to gain Him. Through Paul's instruction, we learn the importance of releasing our past, leaning into our present pursuit, and setting our sights on Christ. This message is a powerful reminder of the singular focus required in our Christian walk—pressing towards the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
