Exhale and Breathe In Deeply
Because…. You’ve Only Just Begun!
No doubt all of you have completed various tasks during your lifetime. I would just like to remind you that your life still yet holds more for you. Without regards to your age, educational achievements, or your current economic status, each new day gives you the opportunity to embrace a new concept, idea, investment or venture!
I can remember when I was a child, in preparation for one of my graduation ceremonies in school, we had to learn a song entitled, “We’ve Only Just Begun”. Although I don’t remember the song in its entirety, I can recall these phrases: “so many roads to choose”; “watching the signs along the way” and “we start out walking but learn to run”.
Philippians 1:6 states “Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” (NIV). Therefore, whatever dreams, ideas, projects and the like that God has given to you; (yes, God gave you the thought…you just didn’t conjure it up in your mind!) … He will make available the proper conditions for them to be manifested. Your current circumstances really don’t matter! You still have a lot to accomplish. There are still so many accomplishments for you to achieve….. You’ve only just begun!
Many times we have said that we are waiting on God….but that’s just an excuse whose expiration date is has long past! Begin TODAY by dusting off that area of your mind that is holding the padlock to every “good work” that has been initiated. Don’t be concerned about what you are lacking. Our Jehovah Jireh will provide!
As the lyrics of the song state: We’ve Only Just Begun.
“So many roads to choose”. In reference to this I’ll say…. But as of today; pick one and abide therein.
“Watching the signs along our way”. It is imperative that you stay alert in the realm of the Spirit; God will always give you the proper signs and direct your path.
“We start out walking and learn to run”. Yes… and now is that time when we need to pick up our pace and swiftly be about our Father’s business.
It doesn’t matter how many achievements you’ve already attained. It doesn’t matter how many areas appear to present a “lack or deficiency”. Whatever excuse you may use… doesn’t substantiate the fact that your future still holds a treasure chest of jewels….waiting to be discovered.
The ball is in your court! Your future has no limits or boundaries….except those that you establish within the framework of your own mind! God wants to use you far beyond what you can ever imagine (Ephesians 3:20).
Today is the beginning of your first day of the rest of your life….
And remember……. You’ve Only Just Begun!!!!

Comentary:
We have been called from the dark into the light to perform a service for His Glory Each day brings with it new goals and objectives that have been stored up on the inside of us to be released in His time. A service that only the designated individual can berformed. If it is to be it is up to me. Procrastination and rationalization for not doing that which we are called to do may be considered a form of disobedience and or possibly rebellion. We need to take the hand of the man who stilled the water as we bask in His protection and provision as we pursue His plan and our destiney.

Amen! To God be the glory! We truly serve an awesome, faithful God whose timing is always accurate!
My spirit leaped when I read this and Phil.1:6 God has begun a great work in your will carry it on to the completion until the day of Christ Jesus simply because I know what God has started in me will not be in vain. He is going to continue to do marvelous things until Christ returns in me and others. The writer was right there are so many roads to take but we have to be in tune with Christ as we watch for the signs of distraction and the signs of blessings. I agree that we start off walking but once we understand that what God has for us and that our work will not be complete until Christ comes we will began to run because we are excited about the reward and that is heaven and eternal life with the Father. I love this article.
READY!!!!
Amen, yes Lord speak to us for your children, and servants are listening. Better yet, we are obeying your instructions
