When we take on a task to do, whether it be on the job or at home, we should not consider it completed until we have done our best and done what is needed. We don’t hold in high regard those people who are lazy or do sloppy work.
Philippians 1:6 says, “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.” Genuine spiritual progress is rooted in what God has done, is doing, and will do. His work in us is perfect and He promises to complete the job according to His perfect design for us. His faithfulness ensures that He will be with believers until Jesus returns and for eternity.
