I didn’t want to. I wasn’t sure that I felt up for it. However, I decided to at least start the project.  Then, half way through, I wanted to stop. I wanted to be done. Though I figured then was as good as a time, if not the best time, to complete the project. So, I did. Little by little, step by step. Before I knew it I was finished and so grateful that God gave me the strength and motivation to get it completed. There are times where there are things expected of us. We wonder if we can do it and sometimes maybe we don’t want to. Though I have learned through experience that the best place to start, it just to start. If we need help when we start feeling discouraged, God is always ready to give us what we need for the task and encourage our hearts forward. Friend, I do not know what is called to be completed on your end, but just begin. Trust that God will give you exactly what you need and when you need it. I maybe didn’t think I wanted to today, but I sure am glad that I did. As I look at my completed project, its not just one more thing I can check off my list; it is also a project that turned out well. I know it did because of God helping me through it. For things are always best accomplished when we have God by our side.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
