Colossians 4:17
“See to it that you complete the ministry you have received in the Lord.”
In Jeremiah 1:5 God says, “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.” Each of us was purposely and hand created by God with specific gifts. And we are to use those God given talents towards completing the work the Lord gives us. Whether they be spiritual, intellectual, or practical, we are to use our talents to advance God’s kingdom and bring glory to His name. We all have a calling that is ours alone. Through prayer, reading God’s Word, consulting others, and following the prompting of the Spirit, we can discover that calling. And when we do, we are to passionately dedicate ourselves to fulfilling it. Whether through acts of kindness, teaching, preaching, serving, or any other form of ministry, we are called to use our gifts diligently. Finding great joy in knowing that our labor for the Lord is not in vain. Because by doing so, we become instruments of God’s love, grace, and truth. So desperately needed in our darkened and depraved world of today.
