Philippians 2:13 PHILLIPS: “It is God who is at work within you, giving you the will and the power to achieve his purpose.”
This helps answer a ‘first-order’ question: “Who am I, and what am I doing here?” Everyone has questions like these. The short answer is that God put you here and has a purpose in mind. It’s like we’re all a piece of a big jigsaw puzzle. It will present a much better picture if we all participate.
God is the perfect example of a benevolent dictator. He gives us the freedom to make choices, but God’s way is always the right way! Time after time God forgives our offenses, and makes a pathway for us to return. His desire is that none would be lost, that all would repent and return! He’s a God of second chances, and that gives us hope!
God wants to work in you and through you!
Blessings and safety to all today!
