"He's still working in me. To make me what I aught to be. It took Him just a week to make the moon and the stars, sun and the earth and Jupiter and Mars. How loving and patient He must be, cause He's still workin on me."
I have known this song for a long time and I have even sang it countless times. But, it has never effected me and made me REALLY think about the words until one day when Makenzie was playing in her room singing it to herself. I just stopped outside her room and listened to her sweet innocent voice singing it to herself. I stood there and just cried as I thought about how much MORE work God had to do on me. Then I listened as she just kept singing it over and over and wondered what all God has in store for her and Wesley. What and how much work will He do on them? What will they be when they grow up? Who will they marry? How many kids? Etc etc etc...
As this school comes to and end, as I watch Makenzie graduate from Kindergarten, Wesley moves on to 2nd grade and moves to another building, and Makenzie begins her last year in my building I can't help to look back over the past several years and see how much work God has all ready done on them and on me. Man, He IS so patient and loving and that is a GOOD thing! But I have to keep reminding myself that He's still working on me.
