God is always at work!
Philippians 1:6 NKJV
being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;
Jesus began a GOOD work in you when you accepted Him. Please know IT is still going on. You might now see it... but His word says that He WILL complete it. One thing (there are many) God is good at is keeping His Word. He is not fickle like we humans are. We get sidetracked, give up, etc.. But God is not like us. He is committed to you.
A picture that came to mind this morning.. thinking about this verse is that of an artist chiseling marble. Sometimes he knocks off large pieces of marble that he does not want. Other times, he is meticulously making small cuts in the subject.... and then in an instant.. a large piece of marble comes tumbling down. Or perhaps the fine chiseling is to fine tune your gifts. But please know.. God is at work... He doesn't sleeep, slumber, or go on vacation. He's in there working.. because He loves you!
A song that I love that encourages me so much along this thought is "It Ain't Over" by Maurette Brown Clark. Give it a listen:
