This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body, refocus your mind, and to re-imagine and re-narrate your life to a truer reality. I’m Dave Cover.

Philippians 3:11-14 NIV

11 and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead. 12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers and sisters, 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.


Philippians 1:6 NIV

“Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”


Philippians 2:13 NIV

“For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.”
