Hey everyone! Short devotion today.
Have you ever noticed how some start well, strong, even like a ball of fire? Then they just sort of peter out. At the opposite end of the spectrum is the person who falls hard for Jesus and there is no turning back. Pastor Greg Laurie is one of them (for example). But I’m sure we all know someone who is sold out to Jesus and has been for a long time.
What we all need to keep in mind is that God is in it for the long haul. Take a moment and read Philippians 1:6- “He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion.”
God never gives up on us nor leaves us. He is in it for the distance. We need to trust Him and say we are too.
Jo, Tami and I are leaving early this morning for Ohio. It will be Tami’s only chance to see Braden play football this year and it will be our last chance. Prayers for safe travel will be appreciated. See you here Monday!
You have my prayers, Bill!
Blessings!
Thank you Martha
Praying for safe travels for you and the family, and a great visit.
Father I know that You only have good plans for my life. Please help me to keep my eyes focused on you, and to keep growing my love for You, and be open to all of Your teachings. I want to do the work You have for me, filled me with fire to do Your will. Please keep me vigilant in my pursuit of knowledge and discernment for Your Kingdom here on earth.
Thanks Gail. And I say amen to your prayer
only by His grace do we continue on, our faith waxing and waning.
He is for us. He is with us. He strengthens us. Thank You, Jesus.
Very true Linda. I’m glad He is patient with me.
