I am a work in progress,
you probably are one too
each day Jesus is working
in us something new.
His grace is forming us to be,
His warriors and His saints
He is shaping us to live
with principles and restraints.
He is molding our hearts,
to live sober and clean
so the likeness of Him
in our souls we can glean.
He knows all the lumps,
that need to be reformed
He is shaping us daily
till in Him, we’re transformed.
We have unlimited potential,
He’ll never be finished with us
but you and I must believe . . .
His remolding is always just.
I am a work in progress,
you probably too ~ are one
every day God is shaping us
into the image of His Son!

which hath begun a good work in you will
perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:”

I can very much identify with this one! I believe we are all being “reshaped,” an it is a lifetime process with all of His children…

Dear Ms. Belka,
I was quite moved by your wonderful poem this afternoon. Congratulations on a job well done!
I am going to deliver a sermon in Lexington, SC to my church in March and the main theme is “I am God’s Work in Progress.”
I would like to know if you would allow me to place your wonderful poem on a Bible BookMarker that I would like to have made for the congregation to receive as they enter the church on March 8, 2015?
Thanks in advance for your consideration & God bless you
