To my amazing mom, LaTiesha McCaskill, and my awesome father, Minister Robert McCaskill Sr.

I press towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Introduction

Grace and peace from God, our Father and our Lord, and our Savior, Jesus Christ! The Lord gave me this title in the year 2018 to encourage those that are going through the many obstacles we encounter in our daily lives. The Lord helped me to examine my own circumstances and trauma, and it is a proven fact that we all go through some form of trouble. We have goals, desires, and dreams that we want to pursue. You begin to plan the life that you want to live, and sometimes, we alter our choices to make our lives to be successful. We work hard to make our dreams livable, but then there are roadblocks that overshadow our desires. We begin to have negative vibes, and we decide to not focus on what God has put in us to do. The question is this: What do we do?

In the Christian perspective, what you are facing is called a process. Some of you are dealing with issues in your relationship or in your marriage. You and your spouse are trying to work out your obstacles to ignite the romance and passion. Some of you are trying to pursue goals, but the obstacle of sickness and other obstacles are in the way, and then you begin to say, I can’t do this anymore. You are in this race for a reason. Hebrews 12:1 states, Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.

The Lord encouraged me to write this book to encourage those who do not know how to overcome obstacles and to press toward the mark.

I pray that this book would be a blessing and that it will change your life for the
