As many of you know, our senior pastor Boyd Hannold is on sabbatical this summer, completing his doctoral dissertation.  In an email I received from him this week, he said that he is looking forward to being with you all again.  He also wrote, “I completed my 100^th page of writing today!”

What is it about crossing these milestones that motivates us?  I think it is being able to see when the end is in sight.  Sometimes the plans we make take months, even years, to complete.  What goals have you been working on that are not yet complete?  Do you trust God with a child-like faith?

Proverbs 16:3 says, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.”  Whatever you pursue, celebrate the milestones, and remember that if your plans are His plans, God will bring them to completion.
