We live in a small house, so even little messes seem big. Recently, I looked at my sewing projects and thought, If my child left this mess, I’d be mad. Then I realized I wasn’t angry at myself because, in my eyes, I could see the finished product–to me it wasn’t a mess at all! I’m thankful God looks at me the same way. He sees in me the righteousness of Jesus–and I can be confident that “He who began a good work in [me] will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” (Philippians 1:6).
Timeless wisdom for pastors with forward-thinking solutions.
