Purpose
Psalm 138:8 The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.
I think that this verse says it all. It’s great to be reminded of the fact that god didn’t just put us here just to be here. We have a purpose! There is something unique for each of us to do. Something that God has made us especially for. We don’t have to struggle to find out what it is. Just do what Matthew 7 says: Seek, Ask, Knock.
Don’t give up on life or on God. Know that He is with us every step of the way, leading and guiding us in the purpose and calling he has designed for us!
God has given us the power to call things. He has given us the power to create with our words. Proverbs 18:21 says that the power of life and death are in the tongue. We must use our words to create life and frame our destiny.
Everyone has been created with the ability to reach out beyond his own grasp. But it is God who draws me, and my relationship to Him in the first place is an inner, personal one, not an intellectual one. I come into the relationship through the miracle of God and through my own will to believe.
