0:13.7	Today's talk comes from Pastor Chad Beach.
0:17.2	Let's jump in. Philippians chapter number three, verse 13. This is Paul the Apostle riding.
0:27.2	And he says, brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it.
0:35.4	But one thing I do, forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
0:43.1	I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
0:52.0	Oh, I love those two verses right there. Paul the Apostle. Now, like when he says,

1:42.8	the the window shield is so big and the rear view mirror is so small because the past, no matter
1:49.6	how awesome it is or how awful it is, it pales in comparison to the awesome thing that God has in
1:56.4	front of us. Come on, everybody, thankful today. Come on, that God's got a plan. God's got something
