Pastor's Corner

for Sunday October 25
“…he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” (Phil 1:6) If you’ve ever taken a hard honest look at yourself you may have wondered if you are really saved. Sometimes the slow progress we’re making is discouraging; it may seem like you take one step forward and two steps back. This scripture is a promise from God that He will finish what He started. This work of grace in your heart is something that HE began and since He started it He will finish it! God always finishes what He starts. The Christian life is often referred to as a race, but it’s not a race that you win by being first. It’s not important to get there first it’s only important that you finish! And God has made the commitment to you that He will make sure that you cross the finish line. Why would He do that? Because it brings glory to Him. Knowing this gives us the confidence to live boldly for God. Boldness to live out each day without fear that something may happen to me or that I will do something wrong that will rob me of my destiny. Everything that happens in your life God is using to bring you to glory. God will finish what He has started - now, isn't that good news?!
