Remember
– You didn’t pick me. I picked you because there is a work you are to do; that
you were made to do; that I will do in and through your life. Whatever you
need; whatever you ask to complete that work my way, will be yours. God will
provide it, so you can finish His work. (John 15:16-17)
Is it your work, or the Lord’s work?
Quickly. When you know it is God’s purpose, and you know He will prevail, you
can simply complete the work as he made you to do it. That is the easy load and
the light burden (Matthew 11:30) that Jesus spoke of. You will be an artist,
completing the masterpiece that is your life – your story. God has ordained the
ending. You simply complete the work.
Jesus here explains that you were uniquely
crafted to be the one who He uses for a unique, important part of His plan. The
promise He gives is that everything; everyone, you need to complete that work
will be provided – just when you need them.
Understand this gift of being chosen. Help
your people to understand what it means to follow Jesus, and to grow to be confident
in His work in and through their lives. Help them, so He may complete His work
in them as well.
