"Tell Archippus: 'See to it that you complete the work you have received in the Lord.'" - Colossians 4:17

"The Bridge to Nowhere" was a raised walkway built in the 1960s, intended to connect the college Library with the Student Union on the Stony Brook University campus in New York. The construction greatly missed the mark and remained an unfinished eyesore for years being demolished in 2003. Projects that are never finished are always disappointing.

Paul was always focused on finishing the work assigned by God. His testimony to Timothy in 1 Timothy 4:6 was, "I have finished the race". Jesus said to his Disciples in John 4:34, “My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work". When the Lord assigns a task, he expects us to finish the job.
There are times that you may grow weary in the work of the Lord, but don't give up; finish the job. Winston Churchill gave a very short speech to the students at Harrow School on October 29, 1941. His words of wisdom were: 'Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, give up. Never give up. Never give up." See to it that you complete the work you have received in the Lord my friend. Don't be a "Bridge to Nowhere".
