What is my purpose?

What is my purpose?

Some days I struggle with this.

What is my purpose?

What does God want from me?

What is Gods calling on my life?

I have a few straight answers directly from the Bible.

Exodus 9:16(NIV) 

"But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth."

Proverbs 19:21(NIV)

Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.

Romans 8:28(NIV)

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Romans 9:21(NIV)

Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?

For every season in our lives we are called to something.

I have personally went through seasons where God has called me to just be.

There have been other seasons tho that I have been called to do other things.

Some seasons are busy, some calm and peaceful, yet others I go through valleys low or mountains high.

But with every season, regardless of what God has called me to, He has called me to worship and praise Him In All Things!

He has called me to:

Be a Wife

Be a Mom

Be a Homemaker

Be a care taker

Be a advocate

Be a leader

Be a strong Woman for Him

Be Firmly planted in my relationship with Him

He has called ME. 

God wants to use me. Little me who feels inadequate.

The me who says "I dont know if I can." 

But God says "I am here I will uphold you and 

through My power Vicki you can do this."

God has a bigger purpose for our lives than we can imagine.

When we become more focused on Him and His will and less on ourselves He can and will grow us beyond our own belief.

God wants to use you for his purpose, regardless of how big or small you feel.

He wants to mold you to his purpose and use you for His Glory.

Isaiah 64:8(NIV) says...

"Yet, O Lord, you are our Father,

We are the clay, you are the potter, we are all the work of your hand."

Jeremiah 18:4(NIV)

But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.

It doesnt matter how we are when we come to God.

He wants to form us. He wants us to be willing to be used by Him.

Be willing to be broken and reformed. Remade into what He created us to be.

We are called according to His purpose. Whatever that purpose looks like in your life.

YOU ARE CALLED!

God has called you by Name. He has asked you to just trust him.

To just have faith in Him, to be willing, heart, mind and soul to be used by Him.

God has a special purpose for you. He loves you so much he brought you into this world at this point in time to share His love with others.

God wants you to open your heart to Love others the way He does.

To share with the world why they need a loving Savior.

The world needs us as Christians to do Gods will so that none should perish.

So today I challenge you, just like I challenged my own children.

Go share God with every person you meet. Today may be the day that one person needs to hear that God loves them. That God is loving, caring, and desires that none should perish.

So listen to the still small voice, and go talk to that person God has shown you.

Be bold if only for a moment. 

May God bless you!
