3:12 Not that I have already attained this – that is, I have not already been perfected – but I strive to lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus also laid hold of me. 4 3:13 Brothers and sisters, 5 I do not consider myself to have attained this. Instead I am single-minded: 6 Forgetting the things that are behind and reaching out for the things that are ahead, 3:14 with this goal in mind, 7 I strive toward the prize of the upward call of God 8 in Christ Jesus.
