I came across this poem in my devotions today. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

"We are here to be perfected,
Only God our needs can see;
Rarest gems bear hardest grinding,
God's own workmanship are we." -Anon.

I am encouraged that God has chosen to make us into better people and will not give up until the job is done.

"Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:" - Philippians 1:6
