When Jesus uttered His last words "It is finished", He was able to do so because He had fulfilled the purpose that He was sent to Earth to accomplish. BUT what about our plan from God??? Do you ever wonder about your heavenly purpose? I know that I certainly do.....
As my husband Craig and I traveled home from Texas yesterday after spending time with my son and his wife, we chose to take the back roads rather than the interstate. In one of the small towns, Craig saw a sign that contained the following message: "Invite Jesus into your heart to find the true reason for living". Upon reflection of these words, I realized that this is the answer if we are unclear of our purpose. Rather than beating ourselves up over whether or not we are fulfilling our purpose, we should reflect on our walk with God.
We should ask ourselves if we are drawing closer to Him each and everyday. If the answer is "no" OR "I am not sure," we need to truly seek Him for His direction. You don't have to go very far to find Him. Jesus provides His exact location in Revelation 3:20 "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in...".
Yesterday, the challenge was to focus on hearing His voice. As we tune in to Him, we can easily hear that knock at the door of our hearts. My challenge to you today is to invite the Lord into your life. As you allow Him to reside in EVERY aspect of your life, the specific purpose He has for you will become clearer.
