Pressing On

Starting from now on, when I'm discouraged, instead of telling you all the details of it, you may see a random verse posted here. It will be a verse or verses that I believe I need to chew on to pass through the discouragement.

Here are some such verses:

"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

"Blow the trumpet in Zion; sound the alarm on my holy hill. Let all who live in the land tremble, for the day of the LORD is coming. It is close at hand; I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten the great locust and the young locust, the other locusts and the locust swarm my great army that I sent among you. You will have plenty to eat, until you are full, and you will praise the name of the LORD your God, who has worked wonders for you." Joel 2:1, 25-26
