At one point or the other, some of us have been faced with the
challenge of knowing exactly what we have been called to do in life. What is my
purpose on earth, we ask. What has God called me to do? God answers these
questions through our natural abilities.
God leads us to our place of purpose through the gifts and talents He
has bestowed upon us. If you are not sure of your purpose, just do what you are
naturally good at doing and then watch God confirm you by blessing you. Don’t waste
your time trying to do what you are not gifted to do; it will lead to
frustration and disgrace.
There is so much pleasure in doing what we are naturally good at
doing. You will enjoy it. Don Moen loves singing. He enjoys travelling around
and ministering unto lives through his songs, because he is doing what he is naturally
endowed to do.
God wants to speak to the world and He would do that through your
talents and gifts. This is where it becomes dangerous to imitate or try to
become someone else. Doing what you have gifted to do is always easy. It is
easier for Ron Kenoly to sing than dance.
Grace is always made available to that man operating in his natural
habitat. He gives us peace and joy to let us know we are fulfilling His perfect
plan. If you attempt doing that which you have not been gifted to do, you will become
miserable. If we work at doing what we hate to do, we won’t be good at it, and
we won’t glorify God with our lives.
God came to give us abundant and a wonderful life not a miserable one
(John 10:10). Our jobs is to discover our natural habitat and start growing it.
We don’t have enough years on earth to be miserable working at the wrong
assignments. Ultimately, God will require an account of your service here on earth
when we get to heaven. Abiding in your area of natural endowment makes you a
useful vessel.
You shall not be useless in Jesus Name. Amen!
