CARRY IT TO COMPLETION




For each
And EVERY ONE of us Christians
Our mission-our job
Is the same


To bring some measure
OF GOD’S LOVE
Of Christ’s life
Alive in some way
In today’s world


For ourselves
And if we are
BLESSED with the opportunity
For someone else


God BEGAN a work in you
At Baptism
And will carry it on
To completion-if we let him


“I THANK my God
Every time I remember you
In all my prayers
For all of you
I always
Pray with joy
Because of your partnership
In the gospel
From the first day
Until now


Being confident of this
That he who began
A GOOD WORK in you
Will carry it on to completion
UNTIL THE DAY
Of Christ Jesus” Philippians 1:3-6


God began
A work in you At Baptism


Maybe you
As I did
Got lost along the way
In your teens-or twenties


Don’t worry
It is common
It is called growth
It is called maturity


Maybe you
Reconfirmed your vowels
From Baptism
As a baby
Or maybe you
Were born again
And recommitted your life to God


For each of us
Our journey is different


What is common
Is that
We are all
On a journey
And we all
Have a personal relationship with God
(If we choose to)


GOD BEGAN
A good and perfect work in you
And GOD WILL
Carry it on to completion


“The fear of the Lord
Is the beginning of wisdom
All who follow his precepts
Have good understanding
To him belongs eternal praise” Psalm 111:10


“The fear of the Lord
Is the beginning of knowledge
But fools despise wisdom and discipline” Proverbs 1:7


God began
A good and perfect work in you
God will
CARRY IT ON TO COMPLETION
And we know
He will carry
That perfect work in us
THROUGH LOVE


“There is
NO FEAR IN LOVE
But perfect love
DRIVES out fear
Because fear
Has to do with punishment


The one who fears
Is not perfect in love” 1 John 4:18


Just love baby
JUST LOVE


God will
COMPLETE HIS WORK IN US


JUST LOVE
