ANW's Thoughtful Thursday
What unfinished work needs completed?
Life can sometimes get in the way of what you are meant to do; but it does not mean that you cannot or will not be able to do it.
I had to take a seven year pause to figure out what I was and where I belong, even after a 28-year career that I dearly and wholeheartedly loved; but almost took my life. Thankfully, the long pause brought clarity and direction, an even greater purpose. Now, I am able to resume, once more, but with more strength, wisdom, and faith than I have ever had before. Just as "Ezra had devoted himself to the study and observance of the Law of the Lord" (Ezra 7:10), so have I by continuing to advocate for healthy lives, homes and work environments with daily words, repurposed items, and dishing out dishes and decorations with love-all because of his "gracious hand"...on [me]" (7:9).
So, if you have unfinished work that you would like to complete, might you, like me, seek His hand and let Him help you finish it. #PickUpWhereYouLeftOff
