Unfinished Business by Mary
Unfinished Business - by Mary
This past weekend’s message about unfinished business has been whirling around in my head this week. I have had this “holy discontent” for several months, actually through most of the fall and winter. I know God has something for me to do. Not sure what that is yet, but I have been seeking Him through fasting, prayer and just alone time with Him.
One thing I realized last fall was that if I was going to be ready for whatever God has for me that I had better get in shape physically. So that has been my next step over the winter. I get anxious wanting to know “what’s next”. But God knows me and probably isn’t going to put the next agenda item in front of me until I have finished the first task. It is too easy for me to get distracted before I finish the task at hand. I found myself saying, “yep, that’s me,” when Aaron talked this past Sunday about one of his professors telling him that he was good at starting many things, but not so good at finishing. Anybody else like that?
Have you been thinking about your next step this past week? Is it just not starting anything new until you finish the task at hand? Or is it seeking God for what that next step is? Or are you jumping into something that has been calling you for some time? I’d love to hear what is going on with your Unfinished Business.
