"I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me." Phil. 3:12b
One's salvation is precious, but Paul makes clear that there is so much more yet to be obtained; the full and abundant life that lies beyond the day of one's salvation.
And it, like salvation, is God's gift
It is NOT a "second blessing", but the blessing that came the moment you received Christ.
That blessing is the indwelling Holy Spirit, the One who convinced you that you needed Christ as your Savior, and now abides in you to direct your life in paths of righteousness.
He is there to help you.
HELPER is one of His names.
He is also known as the COMFORTER.
Whatever you need to live for Christ, He is there to assist you.
How do you experience His assistance.
Press on daily with Him in control, just as Paul said.
Isn't that simple?
