Small Seed for 1-20-15

What's Your Personal Mission?

"That God is on one side and all the people on the other side, and Christ Jesus, himself man, is between them to bring them together, by giving his life for all mankind.

This is the message that at the proper time God gave to the world. And I have been chosen—this is the absolute truth—as God’s minister and missionary to teach this truth to the Gentiles and to show them God’s plan of salvation through faith.” 1 Timothy 2:5-7 (TLB)

Paul knew with “absolute truth” that God chose him to preach to the Gentiles. He knew his life-long mission. What about me? God has had me do some amazing things (drama, writing Bible Studies, leading, working with women, children, and teens, etc.), but I am in a lull right now, waiting for God to tell me what to do next. Even if I don’t know exactly what my next assignment will be, I do know that I am to continue to point people to Jesus as our savior (v. 5). I can do that through my words, behaviors, and actions. 

Father, help me to be light in a dark world. Help me to help others know the truth and find You. Amen.
