Philippians 1:6 - "And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ."
A chef understands that refining a recipe is a continuous process to achieve perfection. In our lives, God is the Master Chef, and we are His beloved creation. He continuously refines us, adding experiences, removing impurities, and seasoning us with His grace. Our lives are His masterpieces, and He is committed to perfecting us. We must trust that every challenge, joy, and lesson is part of His refining process, leading us to be more like Christ.

Morning Prayer
