2 Corinthians‬ ‭8:11‬ ‭NIV — Now finish the work, so that your eager willingness to do it may be matched by your completion of it, according to your means.

As my emotions are higher this week, I am reminded that I don’t want to just rush through life, even when times are tough. No matter what each of us has going on in our lives, I encourage us all to finish this week strong. God has already covered our yesterdays with His grace. He has already gone before us in every task, milestone, and relationship. Let’s grab our cup of coffee or whatever drink you choose and let’s be eager to start our day. 

Do you own an adult coloring book? I encourage you to color as you reflect on this past week. Let’s not get stuck on worrying about coloring inside the lines. Life is messy, yet beautiful. Let’s be thankful for the grace that God extends to each of us, regardless of the mess.

Let’s pray. Dear God, thank You for not expecting me to always color inside the lines. Help me to not rush through life and to worry less. Give me the love and grace I need to conquer this day and finish my week strong. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
