EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
Writing for Jesus is fuel to my soul each day and being used for His kingdom purposes, helps me develop character. As I look back and reflect serving God has brought me so much closer to Him. I’m grateful for every minute of every hour of each day that I can serve.
Imagine a good and powerful king choosing you to play a key role in his empire.  Imagine your President using you to make a difference in an area of your nation. He trains you for the task, authorizes you to act on his behalf, and then uses you to teach others, He promises to supply everything you need to complete the mission….all you have to do is ask. Hmmmm, can you do it? Your King is calling you.
Jesus gathered the twelve disciples but were they instantly ready to do the task? I think not. He trained them, equipped them, and then sent them out. They grew in their character, they became stronger as they became devoted to following Christ.
God wants you. He will use you in powerful ways to change the world where you are. All He needs is a willing, surrendered heart to His calling on your life. He will train you, equipped you, and guide you.
What are your strengths, what are you good at? Surrender them to God and watch Him use YOU and watch how He will build your character through your surrendered heart.
When you receive Christ as your personal Savior, God begins to work in you. Nobody is born fully grown, so God has to build your Christian character from being young in Christ to grow in wisdom and knowledge as you grow daily in His teaching.
The Bible says in Philippians 1:6, “…He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it….” When you are saved, God simply begins a good work in you. You are not a finished product. Trust Him to use you and He will. He will perfect His truth in you.
