On monday we learned in Philippians 1.6 that he[Jesus]that began a good work in you will finish it, Piggybacking off of that today we are gonna dig into Hebrews 12.2: "looking to jesus, the author and finisher of our faith..."
As a writer it's sometimes hard to construct a good article, Sometimes an intro and conclusion practically write them selves while I struggle through writing a hearty body, while other times I can easily spew out solid body content while pulling and introduction and a conclusion out of my brain is a real life nightmare.I think the same things happen to some of us in our Spiritual walks. Some are in tune with how we god here and how we'll end up, it's just that actual life we are living that throws us through a loop while on the other hand there are some who are "living life to the fullest" not understanding how/why they are here, or what is happening once they leave here.
Which Writing style are you? The way i see it, it doesn't really matter forif Jesus is writing our story, it seems as though all we have to do is ride the waves.
He really wants us to not to worry about the future, or the past. HE is writing it, editing it, publishing it, not you. So it will do your heart and mind some good to stop peeking over his shoulder. Sometimes it may be hard to trust what you cannot see, But the beauty of faith is that there is always evidence that what you believe in is not fiction. At any moment in your life you can always look back, look to the left, look to the right, look up, or look down, and see clearly that God has your best interest in mind.
Oh, how he loves us.
The rest of the verse goes on to say: "...who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God." Jesus died, and while it was a painful and tragic experience, His trust in his father brought him joy. And look at him now, seated at the right hand of God. Thats a pretty sweet deal. His hands are offering you an even SWEETER deal, all you have to do is trust Him.
