Talents Plus Passion Equals Purpose


If you have a God-given talent with a passion to use it for the benefit of others that very well may be your life purpose.

December’s Awakening, Day 4

Do all the good you can

in all the ways you can

at all the times you can

to all the people you can

as long as ever you can.

 —John Wesley

So live for the kingdom of God. Seek to bring glory to Jesus Christ and the Lord will use you. It is my prayer, my constant and daily prayer, that God would keep me useable.   

 Chuck Smith



As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead. James 2:26 NIV



“Faith without deeds is dead.” Good works for the betterment of the kingdom of God is the natural and essential outflow of our belief in Jesus Christ and our sincere gratitude for His sacrifice for us. If you’re not giving back something of this nature, one would seriously question the validity of your belief and faith in Him. These good deeds need not be extravagant, just positive works from your hand and encouraging words from your heart. Anything done for the sake of others rather than self would qualify. This in fact may be your calling and purpose—to lift up the body of believers in a varied and a uniquely-you kind of way. Remember, sometimes it’s the little things that have the greatest impact on people’s lives. God has given you your talents for a reason, and those talents very well may be the foundation of your life purpose.
