The New Testament in 50 days – day 32

Today’s reading is Philippians 3 – here are a few random thoughts:

• Verse 1 is good advice from someone who should know, considering all that he went through.  I’d say it’s still a ‘safeguard’ for our faith today!
• Paul’s ‘pedigree’ in vv. 4-6 is impressive; but more impressive still is his statement in verse 7!
• Verse 9 says it so clearly (again) – it’s not our righteousness that counts, but HIS!
• Love verse 12!
• May we all be so determined as vv. 13-14, not only today, but always!
