"The Alpha and Omega"

October 11, 2024 Daily Devotion:   "The Alpha and Omega" Philippians 1:1-6 New Living Translation 1 This letter is from Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus. I am writing to all of God’s holy people in Philippi who belong to Christ Jesus, including the church leaders and deacons. 2 May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace. 3 Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God. 4 Whenever I pray, I make my requests for all of you with joy, 5 for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now. 6 And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns. Rest in God’s sovereignty. The amazing work He started in you, He will finish. Life might not be happening the way you expected. Circumstances might not be what you envisioned when you pictured your life years ago, but trust Him in the process. He is working, even when you don’t see Him or feel Him. He will complete what He began in you. He will equip you for the task and see you through. Your job is to abide in Him and leave the results in His hands. The same hands that crafted the evening sunsets and budding flowers are also at work in your life. Don’t disappear when the “work” of your life isn’t turning out as you had expected. God’s not done with you yet!
