What Am I Chosen to Do?
Scripture: Acts 9:15 But the Lord said to Ananias, “Go! This man is my chosen instrument to carry my name before the Gentiles and their kings and before the people of Israel.
Observation: We have each been chosen for a purpose. God gives us the necessary gifts and abilities to carry out our mission on this earth. The only thing He doesn’t force us to do it. I would like to know exactly what it is I’m supposed to accomplish with this life God has given me, but it’s not that clear. God asks that I trust Him each day and if I’m obedient He will guide. Normally you would think that would be exciting looking at each day individually for God’s blessing, but I lack patience and want to know right away.
Application: I need to trust God all of the time and just follow each day. I need to repeat Proverbs 3:5,6 each morning and believe in it that God will guide me. I need to be patient and wait on the Lord, He has all the time in the world and what I think my mission is might be something totally different. I need to remember I’m her to serve God and not the other way around.
Prayer: My Lord increase my faith that I will trust in you with all of my heart and not lean on my own understanding but in all my ways acknowledge you and that you will make my paths straight.
