MY DETERMINED PURPOSE
To Know Him... To Glorify Him... To Be like Him...
For my determined purpose is that I may know Him that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly, and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection which it exerts over believers, and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed in spirit into His likeness even to His death, in the hope that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead! Phil. 3:10-11
