“I have brought you glory on
earth by finishing the work you gave me to do."
John 17:4
How do we best glorify God with our lives?
Jesus answered that question, not only for Himself but
for every one of us as He prayed the words captured in today’s verse above.
Since He had not yet gone to the cross, perhaps these
words were even spoken prophetically by Him until that time He declared: “It is finished.”
We can do nothing greater with our lives than to
complete the work God has created each of us to do.
In a very real sense, everything else is just noise!
No matter how great the supernatural signs and wonders
if we are not living in our purpose we are, to one degree or another, missing
the mark.
Is that harsh?
It is not meant to be.
What it serves to help us realize is how valuable we
are to God.
He has a unique and special purpose for each one of
us.
Yes, that’s right all 5 billion plus people.
But today I encourage you not to think of the rest of
the planet – but to consider it personally.
Am I fulfilling the purpose for which God created me?
