Well it seems like this has been coming up a lot in my life lately. I feel like God is really wanting me to work in this area. I've recently started reading PURE by Rebecca St. James and it has been amazing and today's devo was about asking God to do new things in your life so that you can further His kingdom. And also today, I watched a sermon from Hillsong church called Use What's in Your Hands, which was about noticing God's calling and how you can use that to fulfill His purpose.
Well in the sermon Brian Houston said that what's in your hands in your calling, what is familiar to you, what you're doing now. What's in your heart is your purpose, your dream. We end up not being happy with ourselves because we want to fulfill God's purpose for us, but we just don't see it happening because of where we're at right now.
We need to use what's in our hands in order to fulfill our purpose. We need to take where we're at now, and use the opportunities that God has placed in our lives. God doesn't just put us in circumstances for no reason. He wants us to use the situations that we are in now, so that He can use it to open doors for us so that we can fulfill that purpose, that desire that God has given us.
Maybe you're thinking, what opportunities has God placed in my life? I don't see any opportunities that I can use to bring others to Christ. Well then all you need to do is ask Him. Ask Him to show you the opportunities He has given you. Or maybe you're thinking, I'm doing all I can, but it just doesn't seem to be working. Then ask God to give you new opportunities to give back and show others His amazing love.
