Scripture

Philippians 3:13–14 (NRSVUE)

Beloved, I do not consider that I have made it my own;

but this one thing I do:

forgetting what lies behind

and straining forward to what lies ahead,

I press on toward the goal

for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus.


Refrain

I am always being drawn further in.


Quote

Gregory of Nyssa, from The Life of Moses

"Such an experience seems to me to belong to the soul which loves what is beautiful. Hope always draws the soul from the beauty which is seen to what is beyond, always kindles the desire for the hidden through what is constantly perceived. And the bold request which goes up the mountains of desire asks this: to enjoy the Beauty not in mirrors and reflections, but face to face."
