View MoreDecember 5, 2025, the 339th day of 2025 Aim For the Goal It is not because an ultimate goal is easily attainable that we aim for it, but because it leads us down the right path. We do not give up because the goal is too lofty. It is not because the goal is even attainable in this lifetime that we press on, but because our values are godly values. Even as we reach for and gain attainable goals along the way, they leads us down the path of our ultimate goal. Knowing that in this human flesh we will never perfectly live the Christian life, does not mean we give up and give into sin. We fight against sin nature all the more. We are never going to love God perfectly in this lifetime, but it is the goal we aim for. We are never going to understand all the mysteries of God in this lifetime, but it is the goal we strive for. Even within the family of God, we are not going to care for every fellow Christian as much as we care for our close Christian friends, but it is the goal we are aiming for. The reminders of how easily we can sin and slip up are not meant to cause us to give up in despair, but to keep us trusting in God's strength, instead of our own, and to keep us humble. There are many good works that are expected of us, merely because we ought to do what Jesus asks us to do. Our humanity may be a stumbling block in some ways, but it is also where we sympathize and empathize with one another. Some of our struggles that took so long for us to overcome, may cause us shame when looked back upon, but they are also why we can encourage another in their struggles to hang in there and keep going. Our trials may be of a different kind from one another, but we all have them. Our wounds and our struggles may be unique to each of us individually, but we all still have them. As we focus our attention on being like Jesus as out goal, we don't settle for being just a little bit better than the other guy. When our goal is to love God with the entirety of our being, we don't hold up tiny examples of love as proof we have attained it. We keep aiming higher. Don't be discouraged when you fall short of your goal. Confess and repent of your sin. Pick yourself up. Refocus your eyes on Jesus. And keep moving towards that goal! Stay strong! Keep your eyes on Jesus and your heart alert to His leading! NAN
