Press On!

Forget what is behind you,
no need to look back
for Jesus has forgiven
He never keeps track.

Don’t think about the past,
or what you’ve done wrong
let go of your weaknesses
press on, and be strong.

Don’ let your past losses,
cause you anguish or pain
count them all as victories
for your Savior’s gain.

Press on, and move forward,
the goal is quite clear
give everything to Jesus
without any doubt or fear.

Forget what is behind you,
make Jesus your Lord . . .
press on, towards Heaven
and receive your true reward!

Philippians 3:14
King James Version

“I press toward the mark for the prize
of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”

Encourage Me Today ~

Lord, encourage me today,
lead me with Your hand
hold me up and lift me
for I’m too weak to stand.

Be my quiet confidence,
the whisper in my soul
let Your Spirit sustain me
till in You I am whole.

Be the voice in my head,
the calm that ever stills
give me words of comfort
that restores and heals.

Be my heart’s inspiration,
move and arouse my trust
motivate and inspire me
as my life to You, I adjust.

Lord, encourage me today,
as I seek to do Your will
teach me to be strong
for I’m too weak to be still!

Joshua 1:9
King James Version

“Have not I commanded thee?
Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid,
neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God
is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”
