Philippians 1:6
And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.
One of my favorite author’s is Sheila Walsh. In her book, In the Middle of the Mess she says, “I believe it’s possible to be healed and to fall again and again. Grace doesn’t come with a sell-by date.”
I chuckle every time I read that. Grace Doesn’t Come With a Sell-By-Date!
I want to run around screaming AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!
We are not perfect! Even as Christians we make mistakes! We are going to make mistakes. We are works in progress. Don’t believe me, read Philippians 1:6 again. It says God has begun a good work in me and is continuing to work in me until He is finally finished. When will He be finished? When Christ Jesus returns!
Tabetha translation: I am trying my best to do the best I can with what I have. I will make mistakes. I will own up to those mistakes. I will fall down. I will get up again. I will keep tying. I AM HUMAN!
The quicker we can all except that fact, the quicker we can move on to every one around us is also human. They will also make mistakes. The quicker we will learn to live together and work together.
I recently read a sign that said instead of gossiping about someone put them on your prayer list. Extend them some of that no expiration date GRACE! The good LORD knows you and I are certainly going to need some.
We may be spoiled by Grace, but thank you LORD that Grace never spoils!
