God's Gracious Shepherding (Philippians 3:12-20; LD 22)

If God only shepherded us through our earthly journey, death would continue to threaten us—but Christ’s resurrection changes everything. Christ redeems the whole person, body and soul. Because He has secured our future and made us His own, we are empowered to press forward today not to earn God’s favor, but because His favor is already won.
