Are you looking back, a Simon, where you’ve been? Luke 9:62; And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. *Or are you looking forward, a Peter, where he’s going? Philippians 3:12; Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Mark 10:50; And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus. v51; And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee?

And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way. *Greatness is in the Struggle. 1 Peter 4:12; Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: v13; But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. “YOU ARE IN A STRUGGLE FOR GREATNESS!” It’s Pictured Here; 1 John 4:4; Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. “YOU ARE IN A STRUGGLE FOR GREATNESS!” Teaching!
