Here's another set of verses I need tattoo'd on my corneas so I don't forget them. I think everyone who calls themselves a Christian would be wise to listen to Paul's words here. We aren't perfect, nor will we ever be in this life. All we can do is look forward.
"I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us."
