God surely wants to work in us for His good pleasure. As we continue to live in Obedience to Him and follow His Way for our lives surely He will do His Work in us. We are also called to work out or “out work” our Salvation by living and serving in such a way that is pleasing to Him. Definitely God wants to do His Work in us, in our families and in our Churches.
