PurposeDrivenLife

The only thing that will matter is what God says about you.

The Bible says, "Our purpose is to please God, not people."

One day God will review your answers to these life questions.

Did you put Jesus at the center of your life?

Did you develop his character?

Did you devote your life to serving others?

Did you communicate his message and fulfill his mission?

Did you love and participate in his family?

These are the only issues that will count.

As Paul said, "Our goal is to measure up to God's plan for us."

GOD WANTS TO USE YOU

About thirty years ago, I noticed a little phrase in Acts 13:36 that forever altered the direction of my life.

It was only seven words but, like the stamp of a searing got branding iron, my life was permanently marked by these words:

"David served God's purpose in his generation.

Now I understood why God called David #amanaftermyownheart.

David dedicated his life to fulfilling Ine's purposes on earth.

There is no greater epitaph than that statement!

Imagine it chiseled on your tombstone:

That you served God's purpose in your generation.

My prayer is that people will be able to say that about me when I die.
