What does it mean to be purpose-driven? Using the gifts, talents, and experiences God has given us for His glory.
Sounds easy enough.
Why is it so hard if it’s “easy enough?”
Oh, to be human!
- “If everyone knew that about me, what would they say?”
- “If everyone knew that about me, they wouldn’t be my friend.”
- “I’m the leader; I can’t let them see that I’m struggling.”
- “I’m not a writer, singer, leader, __________.”
- “I don’t have the skills to ____________.”
- And, on and on and on goes the self-limiting thoughts.
Every day we have the opportunity to be purpose-driven. EVERYDAY – PERIOD.
To be purpose-driven takes intentionality that starts with seeing purpose in everything.
If God created you*, goes before you*, and has a hope and a future for you* – how could He not have a purpose for everything in your life?
Let’s take the focus off of ourselves. Our purpose is about Him.
🔥 He provides what we need to step further than we’ve stepped before.
🔥 He provides transformation to love where we struggle even to care.
🔥 He provides the willingness when we can’t find it within us.
🔥 He provides what we don’t even recognize we need.
- Genesis 1:27
- Deuteronomy 31:8
- Jeremiah 29:11
⏸ Pause to Pray, Ponder, & Journal
- Consider yesterday. How were you, or could you have been, purpose-driven?
- How will you be purpose-driven in leading yourself this week?
