I rarely finish anything... That's what it FEELS like.
If I really look around and consider all I've been called to do in my life thus far, I realize that the assignments God's given me RARELY include a finish line. They are more about someone else's finish line.
The time when I come alongside a stranger in a parking lot and pray with her, when I carry a burden for someone's marathon-like journey, or simply get the dishes done at bedtime only to have my treasures surface and get them dirty again.
Unfinished Tasks |
Projects I've finished |
If I stacked up my value next to the projects I actually finished I'd be found quite short next to the Empire State Building of "Unfinished Tasks".
But my value is not dependent on the tasks I complete or even what I start. It is in the eyes of the One who has set the course for my journey.

I'm always a little late to Five Minute Friday as well... if I make it at all! :)
There are a few good words in your five minutes! I love the reminder that there is rarely a finish line. It reminds me that the finish line is heaven!!
