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
Philippians 1:6
When Progress Feels Slow
Have you ever started something but struggled to finish it?
Maybe it’s a home project, a degree, or a personal goal. Sometimes the path forward seems endless.
That’s what makes this verse so encouraging.
God’s Promise to You
Here’s the amazing truth: God isn’t just interested in starting something in your life – He’s committed to finishing it.
Think of it like a master artist who won’t abandon His masterpiece halfway through.
The Process Matters
Remember those old painting shows on TV? The picture didn’t look like much at first, but by the end, it was beautiful.
Your spiritual journey is similar. God is working on you, step by step, day by day.
Finding Peace in the Process
You might feel discouraged by your mistakes or slow progress. But this verse reminds you that God’s work in your life isn’t dependent on your perfect performance.
He’s the one carrying it to completion.
Your Part Today
While God does the work, you get to participate.
Today, try to notice one way God is working in your life.
Maybe it’s through a challenge that’s teaching you patience, or through a friendship that’s helping you grow. Trust Him, as He guides you to growing opportunities.
