Once upon a time, Jesus went to a wedding and they ran out of wine. His mother informed the host to do as Jesus told them to do. He had various vessels filled with water and he turned the water into wine. The wedding guest proclaimed that it was not customary to present the best wine at the end of the wedding. Now, my life did not start of good. It was bad, very bad. When God stepped in and made it better I was extremely happy. I went from owning nothing to having roots and community and family. I had no one to call and no one to care and now, the phone rings off the hook if I sniffle. I really was happy with life being better. It was more than I expected. God, however, did not want me to just have good or better. He wanted me to have the best. He saved his greatest work; his magnum opus to get the maximum glory out of this life that at one point was insignificant. He is working his way up to a grand finale that all will remember. He is saving the best for last. It is good to have cake, but what is cake without the icing, candles and decorations. Who knew what was in the mind of God when I was just another mouth to feed. I hope you take courage that God is not through with you yet. God wants to get the maximum amount of glory from your life. He is saving the best for last.
Save the best for last
