Kept in the Keeping
"He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion."
Philippians 1:6
If your continued faith depended on the steadiness of your grip on Jesus, you would have lost him by now. Most of us would.
The good news is the other direction: his grip on you. You are not the one keeping you. The one who began the work is the one who finishes it.
On the days you can barely hold on, remember — you do not have to. You are held.
Reflection question
Where are you exhausting yourself trying to keep something he has already promised to keep?
