I love the analogy of being a work of art, a masterpiece as it were. But the addition to that is that the paint isn’t dry because God continues to work on us daily to make us more like Jesus. I don’t know about you, but when I start a project, I am anxious to finish it, to see the completed work and to be able to use it for what I made it for. I can just imagine God starting the project on me over fifty years ago and still patiently working to complete it, knowing what His ultimate purpose is for me. When I get frustrated because I keep making the same mistakes, God lovingly corrects and brings me back around to try again. He just wants me to be more like Jesus, like the person He created me to be. It boggles my mind that God pays attention to me and my growth in Christ. My paint may not be dry, but I am so thankful that God still sees a canvas worth working on!
Yes, we are a work in progress. I’m thankful God is always with us. He guides us through every moment when we seek His presence. Have a blessed week! 🙂

One of my favorite songs is “He’s still working on me, to make me what I aught to be”. Praise the Lord for His tender mercies
