🎙 Episode Summary
In the conclusion of The Heavenly Father’s Guiding Hand series, Danny reflects on the powerful truth that God not only begins good works in our lives—He finishes them. Using the completion of his backyard patio as a metaphor, Danny unpacks the beauty of God’s process: the patience, correction, and “one more row” moments that may feel inconvenient but ultimately make the work better. Listeners are reminded that while the middle of the journey can feel exhausting, it’s also where God does His deepest refining. The episode closes with an encouraging call to keep going, trust the process, and rest in the promise that what God starts, He always completes.
