monday devo

hey everyone
i hope you all had a good day
my verse is:
philippians 3:13-14
"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."
I really like this verse. It says so much to us. We all do many things in life that we regret, everyone does. But, this verse is telling you to forget all the sins you have made and look only to what is ahead of you and that is heaven. After you get baptized you want to live your life completely for God, but then some of us drift away and sin again just like we used to. but this verse is telling us that God will forgive us of the sins we have made and that we just need to focus on the prize ahead of us, which is heaven. It will be such an honor when we get to heaven. I can not wait. But, we need to live our lives here on earth for God so we can win the prize of heaven. I know i sin, everyone does, but this week, and from the weeks on, i am going to focus on the prize which is heaven.. So, what are some things that will keep you focused to the prize of heaven?
hope you had a great day! :)
-Em
