NFY

Excerpt from Dayspring e-devotional:
We need a new button, t-shirt, bumper sticker, or cap that reads...NFY! It stands for Not Finished Yet!

Regardless of the label people put on you (senior, baby-boomer, retired person), regardless of the number of birthdays you've celebrated, you are still here. And as long as you are here, you are not there, and as long as you are not there, it means God still has a purpose for you here.

When Jesus was on the cross, the last thing He said was, "It is finished." After He made that statement He died. When is God's purpose for you on this earth finished? It is finished when you die... until then, you are not finished yet! NFY!

Does the thought of getting older discourage you or make you fearful? Consider these words the Lord spoke to Isaiah: I will be your God throughout your lifetime--until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. Isaiah 46:4 NLT

Regardless of what stage in life we are in, God has a work to do in us, through us, and for us.  Some are in different phases of God's recycling process. Some have not yet started, some are just underway, some are in the thick and the burning heat of it, some are coming out of it, and some are out of it refined by God.  He will finish the good work He has started.  If God started something he will not leave it undone.  He has to finish it because He is a "complete" God.  Don't give up now because He's not done with you! 
 
Enjoy The Ride,
