You're right, that Philippians passage is incredible. Philippians is definately one of my favorite books of all time. And I think I might hang that Hab. verse up in our garden! Jarrod,

And I think I might hang that Hab. verse up in our garden!

What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me." I love this passage so much. In my struggle to overcome my addiction to be less than who I was created to be, this passage I find so moving. Paul's humility and craziness of a changed violent fanatic into a nonviolent fanatic. :) It can be hard turning your back on mainstream success for the craziness of following Jesus. And this passage, Paul's sence of of being caught up in God's desire for all of creation that has started in Christ, I find so moving... I want my life to speak of take hold of the transformation of all things that Christ Jesus has taken hold of us for. Another one for me is: Habakkak 2:14 "For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of YHVH, as the waters cover the sea." Another passage which I find so moving, that I find myself thinking about daily, in the garden, in community with local kids, running workshops... that the the flood of transforming glory has started in Jesus and longs to flood all of creation. Peace with bro, jarrod For me Wess there are a number of passages, Including the Lord’s prayer but since you already put a few of mine:
Philippians 3:7-12
