It’s simple…It’s not about me. I write so that you might encounter and experience the greatest love of all. Love is a person and his name is Jesus. This is simply an invitation to dive deeper and discover who He really is and why I desperately make a daily choice to cling to Him. Jesus is the LIFE, the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIGHT in the darkness.

Paul does a much better job of summarizing a mindset that I have adopted directly from Scripture, read below.

Yet all of the accomplishments that I once took credit for, I’ve now forsaken them and I regard it all as nothing compared to the delight of experiencing Jesus Christ as my Lord! To truly know him meant letting go of everything from my past and throwing all my boasting on the garbage heap. It’s all like a pile of manure to me now, so that I may be enriched in the reality of knowing Jesus Christ and embrace him as Lord in all of his greatness. My passion is to be consumed with him… and I continually long to know the wonders of Jesus and to experience the overflowing power of his resurrection working in me…

I don’t depend on my own strength to accomplish this; however I do have one compelling focus: I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future instead. I run straight for the divine invitation of reaching the heavenly goal and gaining the victory prize through the anointing of Jesus. So let all who are fully mature have this same passion, and if anyone is not yet gripped by these desires, God will reveal it to them. And let us advance together to reach this victory-prize, following one path with one passion.
