Philippians 3:12-14

[12] Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. [13] Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, [14] I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. (ESV)


Paul gives the church in Philippi a picture of what it looks like to have discovered the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ, and yet to want more.
