God ain’t done with you yet! God promises to complete in you what He began in you even before your baby shower (Phil 1:6)! Why am I so confident of this fact? Look at it this way, Christians aren’t complete when they accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. Salvation (redemption/forgiveness) is given instantaneously but the life of becoming a saint is a process that God works in us and then through us day-by-day. A piece of clay can’t be turned into a great vessel until heat is applied and without heat, there can be no molding or shaping. Like you, I too have a testimony of His leading in ways I would never expect and he has provided for me and my family in so many areas during my life. I can look back on those heated tempering tests and see just how God brought me through each of them sometimes beaten and bruised but God remained faithful even when I was faithless (2 Timothy 2:13). I have confidence that He knows what is best for me regardless of what I see since I can’t see the entire masterpiece of God’s upper story plan! Needless to say, I unequivocally know that He cares and loves me and for that I will be forever grateful! The transformation process isn’t always easy, but I’m thankful to know that He’s not finished with me yet.
