You are not behind.
You are being built.
Some walls go up fast,
but foundations take longer
because they have to hold weight.
God is not rushed by what feels late to you.
He is not confused by detours,
not intimidated by damage,
not discouraged by the parts of you
still under construction.
What feels like delay
might actually be mercy.
What feels like pressure
might be strengthening.
What feels like silence
might be the sound of deep work underground.
Stay faithful in the hidden place.
Swing the hammer one more time.
Say yes one more time.
Pray one more prayer.
Tell the truth one more time.
A house that will shelter others
has to be built to last.
“And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.”
James 1:4
