A Life With Purpose
Ephesians 1:11 KJV“In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will.”
As I read that this morning, I was reminded that as believers in Jesus Christ, we have obtained an inheritance according to the purpose of God.
Our lives are not accidents. God’s chosen children have been given a beautiful purpose in life—having faith in Jesus Christ and following Jesus daily.
And what a privilege it is to experience the presence of our Heavenly Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit.
People may try to tell us, or treat us, as if we have little or no value. But God says otherwise. We are of such value to Him that He sent His one and only Son, Jesus, to earth to take the punishment for our sins.
Our purpose is not measured by worldly accomplishments, possessions, or recognition.
Our purpose is to follow Jesus, obey His teachings, and give all the glory to God.
That is a life with purpose.
