Not Finished Yet

From: New Life Daily Devotionals - Steve Arterburn

1 Corinthians 15:57-58 "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."

As you continue to seek God’s purpose for your life, you will undoubtedly experience your fair share of disappointments, detours, false starts, and failures. When you do, don’t become discouraged: God’s not finished with you yet.

The old saying is as true today as it was when it was first spoken: "Life is a marathon, not a sprint." That’s why wise travelers select a traveling companion who never tires and never falters. That partner, of course, is your Heavenly Father.

So pray as if everything depended upon God, and work as if everything depended upon you. And trust God to do the rest.
