I can’t remember where I first heard that phrase, but it blew me away. The reason is that when I first became a believer, my main goal was to stop sinning. When you don’t know who God is and you’ve been living life on your own terms, doing whatever you wanted, and then He saves you, the first thing you want to do is live a life free of sin. And don’t get me wrong—this is honorable. I believe we should live lives marked by repentance because we know we sin every day. But there’s more to faith than that.
It’s amazing that God saved you from something, but He also saved you for something. God has been working since the beginning, and He is still at work today. And He has called us to work as well. The work He calls us to is a privilege, in my humble opinion, because it means God wants to partner with us. He has already carved out a specific space for us to do a specific thing, and that is incredible.
How do you start? Well, Matthew 6:33 says it best: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness.” I believe that if we begin with that pursuit of God, He will reveal everything He wants us to do. Be patient. On my journey, I’ve experienced frustration, impatience, and the need for persistence—all part of the journey. All these things prepare us for the task, and the task is daunting. There will likely be many pivots along the way.
One more thing: in the midst of your journey, love others and help them as much as you can. Be grateful, and remember that your joy comes from your relationship with Him.
