P2R: Philippians

Been memorizing through Philippians. It is week 12. We are in Chapter 3. I am blown by the amount of time I’ve spent (or lack thereof) memorizing scripture and how much time I’ve wasted doing other stuff. Prayer, scripture, worship… CHRIST should be primary in my life. All others secondary.

3:8 I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ…

may I count all things loss that I may gain Christ. THis hit me really hard especially since I count so much else as worthy of my time and energies… my net worth, my education, my family, my girls… but God is of greater worth. Am I able to say that? Am I able to say that I count all things as rubbish in comparison with Christ… in order that I may gain Christ? Let me exalt HIM… and worship HIM…
