For followers of Jesus, the future that God has in store is extraordinary and exceeds our imagination. “Eye has not seen nor ear heard the things prepared for them that love God” (1 Corinthians 2:9). The justice of God might keep us from finishing the way we had hoped, but by the grace and mercy of God, we get to participate in what God has begun. We can be (Philippians1:6) “confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.”
