Conclusion

Now that you’ve completed the Start Here guided devotional, you might be asking, “What’s Next?” Remember that the Christian life is not a sprint, it’s a marathon. The process of becoming more and more like Jesus is a process that not only takes time but it spans your entire lifetime. The exciting thing about following God is he not only saves us by His grace, but he also has great things in store for us as we continue to grow over time.
