Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything (James 1.4)
Do you ever ask yourself what the purpose of your life is? It seems to me that if faith is about focus and not just ideas, this is a pretty basic issue. And the answer, as Christians know, is that we should become more like Jesus Christ.
The trouble is, it is so easy to lose sight of this. Society is so consumer orientated, that we can begin to think that the point of it all is to get all the blessing, all the healing, all the 'feel good' that we can. But this is not what the Spirit of God is about, as He works in us and through us. He is concerned to forge and form us into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
