WEEK SIXTEEN, DAY THREE “ I believe that my purpose as a follower of Christ is to seek Him in everything I do, love and influence others for Him, and follow His plan for my life.” Caitlin, High school senior Your Life Purpose Now that you have an understanding of some basic Bible doctrine, let’s explore your life purpose. It’s simpler than you may think! First, it’s important to remember that God created you for Himself and you will have the greatest joy (fun, life, laughter, freedom, peace, hope and more) when you are living life with God. Life with and for God is not boring and restricted; it is challenging, joyful, peaceful, frightening and rewarding all at the same time. Study Psalm 139:13-14 and Colossians 1:16. He knows everything that will happen in your life before it happens, and He chose you to be His child. Amazing! Study Psalm 139:15-16 and Ephesians 1:4-5. God created you to have a relationship with Him. Just as the rest of creation exists to bring glory to God and point people toward Him, you exist to bring God glory in the way that you love and follow Him. God will use your life to draw the people around you into a relationship with Him; just like He drew you. He will probably even choose to use your mouth to tell them about the forgiveness they can find in Jesus. To put it simply, part of your life’s purpose is to point others to God through your words and life just like someone pointed you toward God. Study John 6:41-51. Include the following in your personal prayer time: Thank God for being the only one that knows you completely and still loves you the way that He does. Thank God for choosing you to be His child. How should you pray on Wednesday? FOR FURTHER STUDY: 2 Thessalonians 2:13
