Many reflective souls, especially in today’s culture it seems, have asked themselves the question, “What have I done with my life?” Those same individuals may at another point in their lives utter, “I never in a million years would have imagined myself here.”
Time is a funny thing; it can be seen as a friend or a foe, or sometimes both. Although we sometimes wish differently, the VCR of life has no fast forward or rewind button; it is invariably stuck on play. Hopefully, the song “Only Just Begun” can serve as a reminder that as a child of God, your life has meaning, regardless of whether or not you are enamored by what you’re doing this very minute. Every string of events leads to another string of events, and through it all, we must remember that all of these stepping stones are integral in making us who we are today, in this very moment. So soak it in and remember that God is just getting started on you, working everything out for your good and more importantly for His glory. Be confident as Paul is in Phillipians 1:6: “…he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”
