Unfinished Projects

We all have them.
For men, they may be a workbench in the corner of the garage.
For women, they may be a closet, or a trunk in the basement.
Regardless of what they may be, or where they are located, they all possess one or several things:
    Unfinished projects.
You know what I'm talking about.  The workbench may hold bits and pieces of a project that was started from a hobby or a honey-do- list.
The closet or trunk may be full of bits and pieces of material from a project that was to adorn your wall, pillow, or even yourself.
Maybe you started painting a picture, and stopped half-way through...
You grew weary, tired, or bored.  Maybe the expense was too much pay to complete your project.
Whatever the reason, your once started projects, now lay dormant, forgotten, abandoned.

I read just today that I am a project.  But I will never be put in a closet, placed on a shelf, forgotten, left to myself or abandoned.  I have a purpose to fulfill, and God will make sure to equip me to do it.  From the moment I trusted Christ as my Saviour, He began to work on me and in me.  Not just a work, but A GOOD WORK.  And He promises to finish it!  He will work on me and in me until the day of Jesus Christ.  Whether I meet Him in the air, or join Him through death, My Lord is working in me.
Philippians 1:6 says, Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.

He's still working on me.  I will never be discarded or set aside for later.  I am His work, and He will complete me!

When you look at me, you may find me lacking.  Just remember:
𝅘𝅥𝅮He's still working on me!  To make me what I ought to be!π…Ÿ
And when I look at you,  I will remember He is still working on you too!
    But that's just me!

"God loves us the way we are, but He loves us too much to leave us that way."  Leighton Ford
