You Are Part of God's Plan!

"In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly," Romans 12:6-8 (NLT)


If you are a child of God, He's gifted you for His purposes. You can make a difference in someone's life, even today. You are part of God's perfect plan, reguardless of how you feel.

Read the scripture again and let your eyes fall on the word grace. God does not gift us according to our merit, our worth, our beauty, our intellect, our education, our body type, or our social status, our ability, or our bank account. He has chosen us and given our lives purpose by His grace. We are a part of His perfect plan.

Slow your pace enough to take notice of the people around you. Make eye contact, give them a smile, make a kind gesture, or give a word of encouragement. Ask God to multiply it in the heart of the recipient that they might see a glimpse of our Savior.


Dear Jesus,

Embolden us to make a difference for your glory and for your kingdom sake. Help us recognize the the grace you've lavished on us, and help us to lavish grace towards others. People are so desperate for you. Please help us make the most of every opportunity you give us today.

In Jesus Name,
Amen
