I think all of us at some point in life struggle with questions like "when, how where and what is my calling?" or maybe even "do I have a calling and how do I live it out if I have one?" Every person's calling is unique and we need to hear from God what it is - but that we are all called to something and that we all thus have a purpose is a fact. In Jeremiah 1 the word of God says the following:
Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you..."
We are called before we are formed in the womb! God is a King and He has a Kingdom that is perfect and without sin. Before the foundation of the earth He had a calling, a purpose, in His Kingdom, He looked at that purpose and then He created me and you for that specific purpose. He does not wake up in the morning with His to-do list for the day and then wonder who on earth is going to be ready and available to fulfill that purpose for that day. When the day arrives He already know exactly who He designed and equipped to fulfill that purpose at that given time in history. The only question left to be answered is will you and I say "Yes Lord we are willing to go!" or do we believe the lie of the enemy that we do not have a calling or purpose in God's Kingdom? Or that we are not good enough or ill-equipped?
The truth is - God is a King. He has a Kingdom. His Kingdom has purpose and you and I were created for a purpose in a time such as this!
God I look to you - Jenn Johnson
