“As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received.” - Ephesians 4:1
All of us are created by God to follow after a dream that He has designed for us to fulfill. More than our jobs, it is our mission, our calling. The Apostle Paul was called by God to expand the Lord’s kingdom, town by town, group by group, and person by person. That work came with a cost, but one that he was more than willing to pay, believing that the potential of the end result was more than worth it. Each one of us is also created with our own unique calling. As we do our part to fully engage that which gives us purpose and meaning, the world around us is changed for the better. Regardless of our current station and situation in life, God is looking to work through us to make a real difference. Let’s not shy away from that high calling, but instead pursue it with all determination and joy!
