Carry it to Completion
Have you ever felt stuck spiritually? You want to grow closer to Jesus, but life feels more like a carousel than a fast gallop to a happy horizon. You feel like you’re going nowhere, just going round and round. Well, it’s time to get off the carousel. Philippians chapter 1, verse 6 tells you to be confident of this: that God who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.
So, grab hold of that verse and start partnering with the Holy Spirit in making it happen. ‘Cause you’ve got a choice: You can either believe God’s working in you, or not. So start believing it. Get actively engaged in your own growth. Obey God in the hard things. Persevere when you feel like giving up. Read the Word when you don’t feel like it. It’s the best, the only way to grow.
