Unfinished
Read: Jeremiah 18:1-6
The general consensus is that we are
all "a work in progress". We are compared to the work on a
potters wheel. That comparison makes me think – as long as we are
moving – we are not a finished product. If we are still moving
around, it must be we have more to do. If so – what is to be
completed?
In my case I thought I may have done
enough, or even more than enough, because of our two kids, Charlie
and Jacki. Both are doing wonderful things in their lives and in
their churches. It's been a few years since they came to be – so
evidently that's not enough! Looking forward – what else is in
store for me?
In the near death experiences I have
read, there is a remarkable similarity – regardless of age,
religious affiliation or geographical location. The experiences
include unimaginable colors and music and greater love than any have
ever experienced. When they are told their time has not come and they
must "go back" it's generally met with disappointment. They
are told they have things to do and there are people who need them.
For those of us who have not had
this experience, in a way we have the same message – you are still
here so you have not completed God's plan for you!
