Today’s Scripture



"…he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."
(Philippians 1:6, NIV)


 









 

  

 









 


 

He's Working in You

Sometimes when God is doing a work in our lives, it can begin to feel a little uncomfortable. We may encounter people who are hard to get along with or have circumstances that seem beyond our control. When this happens, instead of complaining, getting sour or trying to change everything around you, why don’t you look deep inside? Say, “Lord, thank You for doing a work in me.” See, I’ve learned that God is more interested in changing me than He is in changing my circumstances. If I choose to stay sour because I’m not getting my way or discouraged because things aren’t happening on my timetable, that’s going to keep me right where I am.


If you want to see change, if you want to see God open up new doors, the key is to bloom right where you're planted. You can’t wait until everything gets better before you decide to have a good attitude. You have to be the best that you can be right where you are. When you bloom where you’re planted, you’re allowing God to work in you, and He will be faithful to complete what He’s started in you!
 

A Prayer for Today


 

"Father God, thank You for doing a work in me. I choose to align myself with Your plan by blooming where I’m planted. Help me, by Your Spirit, to be an example of Your love and life everywhere I go in Jesus’ name. Amen."
From JOM

Good post. Yes, we must be satisfied with the circumstances God thinks appropriate for us.

God gave me this Scripture when I was first saved, 38 years ago. At first, I thought it was just about God was not going to let go of me, and he was changing me.

Then, I began to realize it meant a lot more, like the devotional says! And we are to keep our eyes on God, and the amazing work he is doing in us, not in spite of our circumstances, but BECAUSE of them!

God uses everything for our good! That means ALL things!

"And we know that God works all things together for good, to those that love God and are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

Great post! Thanks for posting!
