Eyes on the Prize


Sickness, Doubt, Worry, Excitement, Drama....

Life in college is not always a blast (like I thought it would be), but I feel like I have grown sooooo much from this chapter in my life. This song popped into my head and made me smile because it is so true. Why go back to those "easier"days of kindergarden when life is full of riches.. and rags? Philippians 3:12-14 explains why we should press on... we press on to reach the goal. You know, that goal of making it to heaven and living eternally with God! My near future might not be known, but that won't hinder me.
I choose to press on!

"Pressing On" by Relient K
I think we're going somewhere.
We're on to something good here.
Out of mind, out of state.
Trying to keep my head on straight.
I think we're going somewhere.
We're on to something good here.
There's only one thing left to do.
Drop all I have and go with you.

Somewhere back there I left my worries all behind.
My problems fell out of the back of my mind.
We're going and I'm never knowing (never knowing) where we're going.
To go back to where I was would just be wrong.
I'm pressing on.
Pressing on, all my distress is going, going, gone. (pressing on, pressing on)
And I won't sit back, and take this anymore.
'Cause I'm done with that, I've got one foot out the door.
And to go back where I was would just be wrong
I'm pressing on.

I think we're going somewhere.
We're on to something good here.
Out of mind, out of state.
Trying to keep my head on straight.
I think we're going somewhere.
We're on to something good here.
Adversity, we get around it.
Searched for joy, in you I found it.

You look down on me, but you don't look down on me at all.
You smile and laugh, and I feel the love you have for me.
I think we're going somewhere.
We're on to something good here, and we're gonna make it after all.
