Philippians 3:12 I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. 13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. (NLT)

There are a lot of things in our lives that want our attention. But just as you cannot drive forward while looking in your rear-view mirrors, you cannot move forward in life if we are constantly looking anywhere but ahead. This year we focus on looking forward to our Savior, Jesus, while running this race, called life, as we live out our faith in God.
