My calling and purpose in life is different than that of Jeremiah–but the same God who formed him, formed me.
============================
Scripture
Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”
Observation
What an amazing word this is, that Jeremiah received from God! What assurance he had when the going got tough, that God had a plan and a purpose for his life–before his life even started.
Application
My calling and purpose in life is different than that of Jeremiah–but the same God who formed him, formed me.
The same God knows me, and has set me apart to fulfill the purpose for which He created me. He has appointed me to a calling, so that His plans would be accomplished in me.
This week, I choose to walk with confidence in the calling God has given me–not because of my own merit or qualification, but because my heavenly Father has a purpose for my life.
Prayer
God, thank you for the assurance that you have a plan and a purpose for my life. Thank you for the confidence of knowing that you know me and love me, and you are guiding my steps.
