Called for a Purpose

 Jeremiah 1-2; John 10 

“The Word of the Lord came to me, saying, ‘Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.’”

Jeremiah 1:4, 5

We were created by God for a purpose to which he has called us. For us to live a life worthy of the calling we have received, we must know that calling, and know the One who has called and appointed us for his purposes. God has formed us. He knows us. He has set us apart for his purposes and appointed us with his authority.

Why then do we fear?

Why then do we live self-centered lives that lack eternal purpose and impact?

We were created to live on mission with God and to live God’s mission purposes for our lives; this will always include his love for the world. When our lives are connected to God’s larger mission story, we live with larger purpose, and with significance and with destiny.

What are we waiting for?

It’s time to really live and to live more abundantly.

“Lord Jesus, thank you that you created me for your mission purpose and glory. I give myself to your call again today.”
