INTRODUCTION:INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE
By James W. Parrott, Jr.
Subject:Don't Take Your Eyes Off The Vision
Theme: I Press Towrds The Mark Of The High Calling In Christ
Jesus
Texts: Phil 3:14-"I press towards the mark of the prize
and high calling of God Christ Jesus".

afraid; and began to sink, he cried saying,
Lord,save me".
INTRODUCTION:
Here is a paradox of thought, sin is defined as missing the mark. at the same time, Apostle Paul urges us to press towrds the mark and high calling of God in Christ Jesus. The greek word for sin is hartimos, whereas the Greek word for mark is skopus which means target or vision. What is vision ?
Prov. 29:18-"Without a vision, the people perish".

KEEPING GOD IN FOCUS
By James W. Parrott,Jr.
There are people, who take life as it comes and goes,
Without clear purpose and vision, controlled by woes.
By praying in the spirit to the Lord Jesus,we trust and obey,
Yet others who have not set their sights on Christ, they
go their own way.
Oh what needless pressure and stress we carry,
Yet our attiude and demeanor will, will make you weary.
Don't be superstitious, studying the stars hocus pocus,
Press on towards the mark, keeping Jesus, which is
Keeping Gof in focus.
