Finished Works

Hebrews 4:13
For we which have believed do enter into rest, as HE said, As I have sworn in My wrath, if they sahll enter into My rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world!

God is not done with any of us yet - or else we would have already been taken home to heaven - God has a plan for each of our lives - He wants us to remain in His rest - His rest means we quit trying in our power and trust in His power to do in us what we cannot do on our own - we must trust His power , His Grace and His love to see us through - we must depend on Him and not oursleves - this seems to be a common theme in the devotionals God is leading me to write - He is building something beautiful with HIS church - I am seeing this more and more - HE wants us to be built on HIM and HE wants us to be ready for the Groom - it's hard being a male and thinking about the fact we , the church are the Bride of Christ - we must build our lives on Him -
and when all is said and done - God will have some wonderful finished works!
We are all incomplete at the moment - none of us have arrived yet - none of us have made to the place were we can just quit growing and become done!
We have to strive in Christ each day - being a Christ follower is not a part time job - but a 24/7/365 commitment to allowing God to build our lives on HIS foundation and what HE builds cannot be torn down - however what we build on our won't stand the test of time - soon we will be finished works for Christ - but right now - we must contiune on the path He has set before us and serve HIM by serving others in HIS name! We are works in progress - soon HE will complete us to His specifications!

Word to the wise: Let GOD finish you - HE knows what's best!

BECAUSE OF CHRIST we are becoming finished works!
