A few things I’ve been thinking through as I am feeling challenged this week to begin a new project.
My life is not a series of random events. My family background, education, and life experiences—even the most painful ones—all equip me to do some work that no one else can do.
Ephesians 2:10 “We are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do“
God knew me before I even existed.
Psalm 139:13 “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.”
God will use all my life events, even the painful ones, for my good and His glory.
Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
God will finish what He started in me.
Romans 8:29-30 “For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.”
Philippians 1:6 “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.”
At some point in the future, if I complete this project, I will let you all know what it was…
