Oct. 22, 2008 - Finishing it
We finished reading the book, Created for Work by Bob Schultz and it was just wonderful. My husband and I enjoyed it so much that he says we are going to read through it again. The last chapter is titled "Finish It" and it was very convicting for me. It was about the importance of completing a job. Unfortunately, it is known around my home that I love to start new projects but I often do not finish them. I'm not sure what happens, really. I start out excited about doing something new and different then I just fizzle out. The chapter titled, "Maintenance" would apply here, also. But back to the final chapter. He reminds us that Jesus' last words were, "It is finished". Jesus had a job to do and He did it. Completely. The book reads, "Aren't you glad that Jesus didn't work halfheartedly at saving you from sin? We have confidence that He is able to save us to the uttermost because He finishes what He starts." (Thank you, Jesus!) So that's my newest goal. I am going to set out to complete some unfinished projects and not start any new ones until I am done!
Now, where do I begin?

We have the book but have not read it yet. I hope to have my dh and son read it together in the next few years.
Thanks for sharing about it.
