Sometimes it is easy to think that don’t have a
purpose. Especially as a teenager it is sometimes difficult to see why you have
been put here on this earth. The beautiful thing is that God has a purpose
thought out for every one of His children. And He has a purpose for you!
As I am trying to decide what college I will be
attending, I continue to feel the pull to go to a public university. All of my
friends and the adults in my life continue to push me towards continuing my
Adventist education, but I don’t feel like that is God’s plan for my life. I
have the inclination that a large part of God’s purpose for my life is to reach
others for Christ through Bible studies. God is pulling on my heart strings to
start a revolution. To attempt to reach the young ladies at a public
university. I don’t know which college that will be or how I will be able to
accomplish this task, but I don’t believe it is impossible.
I have already felt God’s purpose for my life as I
have led an online Bible study along with a Bible study in my high school
dormitory at my boarding school. I feel called to share God’s word with the
ladies around me. And God is calling you too!
God has a beautiful plan for your life. Although you
may not be able to see it right know, I pray that it will soon become clear. God
would not have created you if He did not have an amazing purpose for your life.
I encourage you to pray to God, that He would reveal His purpose for your life
to you, so that you can get started. Once you find your purpose, I hope that
you will be energized to run towards accomplishing your new goal! I promise you
it will be worth it.
“But I have raised you up for this very purpose,
that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the
earth.” Exodus 9:16
Beautifully said!!! So proud of you! Keep writing and keep your eyes on Christ!
