 ABIDING

“I haven’t learned all I should even yet, but I keep working toward that day when I will finally be all that Christ saved me for and wants me to be.”            -  Philippians 3:12

God will meet us wherever we are in life.  We are all a work in progress and God loves us just the way we are and at every stage in our lives.  That is a very comforting thought for me.  When I stumble I know He is there, He has a plan for me, He picks me up, dusts me off and leads me back on the right path, so that I can be the person He wants me to be.
