approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Acts 2:42-47 42 They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the
breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and
miraculous signs were done by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in
common. 45 Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. 46 Every day
they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising
God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who
were being saved.

IV. We must Choose to set worthy Goals
Philippians 3:12-14 12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made
perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13
Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do:
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward
the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
