In May I started a one weekend project that turned into a month and half project. We painted our living room. I thought I could polish it off in a day and a half with four gallons of paint. A day and a half later and three gallons of paint, I was looking at three quarters of the job, still unfinished.
Finally, last night, the job was finished. Our living room was transformed. It ended by hanging a new ceiling fan from the ceiling. In my opinion it looks good. It also feels good to complete a project of such magnitude. It provides me with a sense of accomplishment.
It is a feeling that I don't often get as a pastor. It seems the work of the church is an unfinished work. And it will continue to be an unfinished work until the day Christ returns. This is not a bad thing. In many ways it is a good thing. The day we sit back convinced that the work is done, is the day that Satan has won.
