Therefore, my
beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the
work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the
Lord. (1 Corinthians 15:58)
This is
an important and wonderful encouragement to stop and look at what you
are doing with your life? Are you pursuing the Lord everyday? Are you
asking, seeking and knocking? Do you feel like you are making
progress, or just wasting time?
In this
season of my life, I recognize that changes in age, and commitments
can cause a bit of an upheaval in what we were once accustomed to
doing. But it doesn't change the fact that the Lord wants us to keep
making progress in our lives' calling that He placed on us before we
were even born.
If you
look and discover that there may be a thing or two that you know
needs improvement, there is no time like now to stop and ask Father
God to help to get you moving up higher in your love walk with Him.
After all, the first and best place to be is in the presence of the
Lord.
We want
to live a life that is passionate for Jesus, our Bridegroom, and to
not be willing to settle for less. He is looking for people who are
willing vessels. All we need to do is to stay humble and keep
depending on Him to help us reach the mark and the high calling He
has placed on our lives for His glory and the benefit of a lot of
people.
The
great thing about making progress is that once we achieve one goal,
we now have room to reach higher. Like Peter who answered the call to
walk on the water, we can look unto Jesus Who reaches out His hand to
us and asks us to "Come." And if we miss it, we can call on
Him and He will lovingly extend His powerful hand to help.
So
today, may I just encourage you and me and all who will listen to
keep reaching up and keep trying. Don't ever give up, because Jesus
will never give up on us! I preach what I am learning. I certainly do
not try to maker anyone think I have it all together, because as are
you, so am I a work in progress. The keep words here are "WORK
IN PROGRESS."
Are you
