Paul's number one desire, was to know Jesus in the power of His resurrection, the fellowship of His suffering, and being made in the likeness of His death, that he might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. Jesus told Paul at his conversion, that he was a chosen vessel, and that He would show Paul what great things he must suffer. Paul learned that all his past accomplishments in the flesh where dung, in order that he might know Christ, and to be accepted in the beloved. Brothers and sisters our goal as Christians, is to be like Jesus, and He alone will change our vile bodies, then fashion them like unto His glorious body at the resurrection of the just. So our life is hid in Christ, and our conversation is in heaven where Christ dwells. So let us forget those things which are behind, and focus on what is ahead, that we may win Christ Amen.
