Amen saints from all over the world. We love You Lord. Continue to press onward to Him in 2009. Pursue Christ, gain Christ, be found in Christ, magnify Christ. This is the way to experience Christ.
I like this song because it encourages you to continue on and reach toward the goal. There is always opportunities to pursue him. Likewise, we should not pursue worldly "gains" which are endless, useless, and without eternal value. This song reminds of the truly valuable treasure: Christ!
