Word of Hope for Today by Bro. Rolly Custodio
Please be patient, God is not finished with me yet
‘But let endurance and steadfastness and patience
have full play and do a thorough work…’ James 1:4 AMP
Today’s Insight
Life is lived in seasons; if you don’t understand
that, you’ll be constantly frustrated. Some seasons are for sowing, some for
waiting and some for reaping. Sometimes you have a short, intense burst of
growth followed by a longer period of stabilizing and testing. ‘But what about
my problems?’ you ask. Pray for a miracle, but don’t be disappointed if your
answer comes through gradual change. Over time, a steady stream of water will
erode the hardest rock and turn giant boulders into pebbles.
You may feel frustrated
with the pace of your progress, but God is never in a hurry. He took eighty
years to prepare Moses, including forty in the wilderness. For 14,600 days
Moses wondered, ‘Is it time yet?’ But God kept saying, ‘No’. Contrary to
popular psychologists, quick-success seminars, and the ‘no-money-down’ guy on
TV who made a fortune in property sales, there are no easy steps to maturity.
When God makes a mushroom He does it overnight;
when He makes a giant oak He takes a hundred years. God sets the schedule, not
us.
When you get discouraged
about how far you still have to go, stop and look back at how far God has
brought you. Weren’t there times when you just wanted to quit? Yet He never
stopped loving you, believing in you and developing you. ‘If we are faithless,
He remains faithful…’ (2 Timothy 2:13 NKJV).
Years ago people wore a popular button with the
letters PBPGINFWMY (‘Please be patient, God is not finished with me yet’). And
He’s not finished with you!
Today’s
Prayer
Heavenly Father thank
you for your powerful Word today. Lord
thank you for being patience with me and continue to us people to come follow
you. Lord thank you because you got me. Lord strengthens me to continue sharing
your Gospel or Good News to the lost souls. Lord empowers me to share your Salvation
to my family, relatives, friends, neighbors, workmates and classmates and even
to our enemies so that they can be well informed and if the end comes Lord you
can say to them that I did forget sharing to them by use your servant and you
can say to me good and faithful servant I entrusted you for a little things I
will entrust your for bigger things. Lord helps me to be patience in my calling
and even to those who rejected your Gospel. Lord let your Holy Spirit gives me
power to remain strong with patience as I serve you for your glory, In Jesus
Name. Amen!
