Olympic-Sized Faith

Today's Scripture

"Brothers, 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, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 3:13-14)

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

We enjoyed watching the Olympics on television. As we watched, it was obvious that it requires more than skill to become an Olympic-caliber athlete – it takes dedication and determination. It takes a can-do attitude. It takes a willingness to shake off past failures and defeat and simply be determined to try again and again until you succeed. And that's exactly what it takes for you to be a champion in life!All of us have made mistakes in the past. Maybe your emotions have been injured or you have experienced a devastating setback in a relationship, your health, or a job.

Regardless of your past defeats, I have good news for you – you are not disqualified from competing in the race of life. God has great things in store for you and your best days are just ahead. You may have missed plan A for your life, but God has a Plan B, a Plan C, a Plan D – all the way to Plan Z. God promises to help you get across the finish line and onto the winner's platform.Start each day afresh and anew in an attitude of faith. Forget what is behind you and look forward to the promising future God has planned for you. When you do, you'll live your life refreshed and restored, and you'll experience the victory that God has for your life.

A Prayer for Today

God, I am going to put my past behind me and start today fresh. My mistakes, my regrets, my disappointments do not define me. I am going to press toward the goal to win the prize. In Jesus' name, Amen.
