How is your great work coming along? I hope 2023 is the year you deliver your great work to the world.

Do you feel like you are getting distracted from your great work because you are spread out too thin?

When we pursue our great work, we must carve out time, space, and margin to make the solutions visible.

Follow Nehemiah’s example when bringing your great work to Him - humility, prayer, request, and patience.
