Your JOYful Purpose


Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  There’s a serving that was created especially for you!
        
God created each of us for a purpose! 
He gives us
  • special talents
  • abilities
  • interests
  • strengths and 
  • experiences 
in order to accomplish that purpose in us and through us. 

Why then, do so many people miss their purpose?  Could it be that we are not willing to let HIM do the leading?  Do we close our ears to His voice because we are selfishly pursuing what we think is best?  Or maybe we just don’t believe that we are important enough to be used by Him.  We may feel worthless or at least not as good as other people. 

STOP right there!  When we start comparing ourselves to others, we headed for trouble.  God never intended us to be anyone other than ourselves!  We’re not in competition with anyone else…especially when it comes to God’s love and purpose for our life!

            Romans 8: 28 reminds us: "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
And the following verse tells us that we are to be
"conformed to the image of His Son."
 
            So there we are!  That’s our purpose: to be like Jesus!  Each of us will pursue our purpose in different ways. We don’t have to travel the exact same road as someone else.  But we do need to walk in the footprints of Jesus.  That’s when we’ll discover our JOYful purpose.

            Find your special purpose by faithfully drinking the Joy Juice of Jesus!
