OUR GOD-GIVEN PURPOSE

The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me.

Psalm 138:8

I like to declare this Bible verse every day. Because I’ve committed my life to God, this Scripture reassures me that His purpose for my life will prevail. Many people spend years setting goals and making plans, only to discover that what they thought they wanted wasn’t what they wanted at all. Nowadays, a lot of people think that getting more and more education is the answer to their search for ful-fillment. Often they realize too late that all the education in the world can’t guarantee they’ll be truly satisfied in the end. It never occurred to them to ask God what His plans for them were.They weren’t aware of the fact that He created them with a specific purpose in mind, and that if they aligned their plans with His, they would experience a peace and contentment that can be attained no other way.

If you will whole heartedly commit your life to the Lord and cooperate with His plans for you, He will move mountains to ensure that His purpose for your life is fulfilled.You may be an artist, and people have told you there is already too much competition in the art world.The odds are stacked against you, so don’t waste your time,they may say. Perhaps you’re a musician, and everyone says you’d better pick another profession because there all ready too many people in the music business. Maybe God has given you a vision to go into some form of min-istry, but you’re being told that you’ll starve. Or you’re feeling overwhelmed because it seems that God is leading you into the medical profession, but all you can think about are the many years and costs of education ahead of you. Listen carefully. If it’s your sincere desire to fulfill your God-given purpose in life, and you believe that God is calling you into the ministry, the music business, or any-where else-—rest assured that He will make a way where there seems to be none.You will find satisfaction and joy in your labor. And no power on earth or in hell itself will be able to keep God’s blessings from you!
