The message at church this morning was awesome to hear. It was our pastors 15 yr anniversary at the church and we had a guest speaker come in. The guest speaker was someone that had hired our pastor early on in his career and he talked about how he and his wife live and serve with a passion.
Not all of us are called to serve in the ministry, but we are all called to use our talents to serve God. But how do we find what our passion is and what God has called us to do? The guest speaker today gave us three touch points.
1) What do you see that need to be done that no one else is doing?
2) What do you desire to do?
3) Where do other people see God in you?
We have to take a step of faith. Even if we fail God will bless us for having faith. Sometimes we don't always get it right in the very beginning. "Without faith it is impossible to please God. With faith God is pleased." All we need to tell God is "yes." I truly believe when we tell him yes, tell him whatever the question is and wherever you lead me the answer is yes, we will start seeing amazing things happening in our lives.
John 15:7 "If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire and it shall be done for you"
All we have to do is ask. Asking is sometimes a scary thing though because we don't want to be removed from our comfortable jobs and nice wages. We don't want to be changed or moved if it is going to interrupt our lives. Maybe what we would we find if we asked would be God blessing us even more in our current situation in life. What do you think?
So today I'm thankful for:
1) finding a church home here in San Angelo
2) an afternoon spent hosting the Book Club for Young Professionals of San Angelo
