"For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus." -Philippians 1:6 (NASB)
My family and I volunteer at a local nature center and environmental education organization. The work is worthwhile and can be rewarding. However, the organization, exhibits, and programs are all works in progress. Part of the fun and the challenge is helping the organization grow, adapt, and change in ways that will help guide it well into the future. In our lives, we are works in progress, too. We need to be prepared for changes, growth, and guidance for our eternal futures!
When we think about how we need to change and grow, we should remember that God has a plan for each of our lives. No matter what choices we make, He can use our circumstances for His good. As we consider where to go next, which direction to turn, or what we want, we need to talk to God and listen to His reply. We need to let go and allow God to form our lives, guide our lives, and move us toward Him and His perfection! It is only through being a work in progress of God and His Son, Jesus Christ, that we can reach our Heavenly, eternal destination!
Allow yourself to be molded by God as His work in progress!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for never giving up on me and for continuing to work on me for Your glory. Help me to always talk and then listen to You for guidance in my life. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
