I Press On
Press On
Written by Missy Oursler
If you want to be affective in the present you have to put the past behind you – successes and failures. The journey is not done, we cannot sit and dwell on what has been, we must continue to move toward what will be.
Pastor Bruce Cargile
“Forgetting what is behind and striving toward what is ahead, I press on.” As a mother I must daily press on.
Today, as I sat rocking Samuel, he looked up and smiled at me – his eyes only for me as I was the center of his world. I press on…
Today Andi and Josh went tearing through the house, crying and shouting threats. I press on…
Today Josh snuggled down beside me and gave me sweet kisses and hugs. I so enjoy our quiet moments together when all else fades away. I press on…
Today Andi went to school on her own – you see she has grown so much. I press on…
Today Josh wanted to run and wrestle at every turn, wanting things in his time. I press on…
Today Samuel woke up at 3:15 in the morning; nothing could make him happy. I press on…
Today Andi helped Josh to do his ABC’s. She love to play and is so patient with him. I press on…
Today Andi and Josh tore up my room in their play. I press on…
Today Josh slowly and carefully wrote his name and used scissors for the first time. I press on…
Today Samuel laughed great belly laughs for his daddy. I press on…
Today Andi was baptized by my father as a symbol of her new life. I press on…
I press on because tomorrow Samuel will be crawling and will have no time for me. I press on because tomorrow Josh will be in school and I will not be as much of an influence in his life. I press on because tomorrow Andi will be dating and driving. I press on because tomorrow they need to decide for themselves, they need to make their own way. I press on because our time here is short. I press on so they might reach the goal.
“Forgetting what is behind and striving for what is ahead, I press on.”
