1ST OCTOBER
Psalm 139:16
“Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.”
I am here because a purposeful God planned my existence!
The secular world would like you to believe that your life has no meaning of its own, no higher purpose, that your life is the random outcome of a chance series of events emerging out of hundreds of millions of years of chaos. But in this Psalm, God is saying to you, “I was intimately involved in making you. I have plans for you. You fit into what I am doing in this world.”
You may have been born into a cruel home and grown up in hard circumstances. You may not even like yourself. Or you may be happy and secure. But from God’s perspective, you have been uniquely shaped to fit his good plan for you.
If you have not yet discovered God’s plan for your life, I encourage you to begin focusing on your spiritual life. Spend time with God in prayer. Read his Word, the Bible. Listen to what he is saying to you about your life.
As you get yourself to a place where you are spiritually sensitive to God, you will find that he is leading you forward in his will for you. Your daily times with him will take on new significance as you ask him to reveal his will for you each day.
MAKE IT PERSONAL
Do you know God’s plan for your life? If so write it down as a reminder of what you are here to do. If you don’t know God’s plan for your life yet, can I encourage you to start asking God questions? He is happy to answer. What are some questions you would like answers to?
