We have all, I believe, from the earliest of ages wondered what our life would be like. When we were younger it probably came out in the form of a statement declaring that we would be policemen or lawyers or teachers, etc. Coupled with that pursuit we also seem to lunge for an answer as to who we are going to spend our live with. Will we be married? If so, what will our spouse be like? If we don't get married, then what? I find that throughout every passage of life we tend to ask these two questions again and again. Yes, what we are going to do with our life and who we are going to do it with are very important. In fact, they tend to shape our next steps and the moments for which God has given us a Unique Design.
Scripture affirms this type of pursuit when it reminds us that we are to be a people of vocation and calling in this life! As we have seen over these past few weeks in our look at the Gospel of Luke, Jesus gives us a calling to be stewards in His work and to line our own wants, wishes, and will with His priorites and purposes! When this amazing connection takes place, lives change and cultures begin to regain the original vision of God when this whole thing began! Consider this: Wherever you go and whatever you do, you are a representative of the Most High - the King of Glory! You have a name tag on your shirt which reads “Child of God”. This truth alone begins to answer the key questions of what and whom!
We wrestle and wrangle with this so much in the course of daily life! The what is to bring glory and honor to God! The whom is His people - His church! This Sunday is really going to be the culmination of the past 8 weeks for us as a church! We are privileged to have as our guest Mels Carbonell who has led countless numbers of God's people to grasp brand new this idea of what and whom with which we all seem to struggle. Not only that, but he will guide us in the how as well! He will help us explore our giftedness, skills, passions and our Unique Design for Christ and His Kingdom!
Now here is the great part! This weekend will empower and equip you for every area of your life and vocation! All four areas of vocation we have referenced (child of God, family, work/culture, church) will come together this weekend and equip you as never before! Join us for church on Sunday morning and then come back with a friend to explore this great idea of vocation and calling as we answer the what and whom of life together!
