Called

"Paul, called to be an apostle by the will of God."

I hope that you understand--and embrace--the truth that your calling is just as surely by the will of God as the Apostle Paul's calling. Whatever God has called you to be at whatever stage of life you find yourself, it is a sacred calling. And it's not as if God was thinking, "I need somebody to do this. Who's left over?" His choice was deliberate, planned. He created you for your "assignment." And it's a vital assignment. Paul himself writing to the church under divine inspiration tells us that those parts of the body that we believe to be the least in importance or actually the most necessary--the most vital. Please approach your day and your calling with the same commitment, excitement, and sense of purpose that Paul approached each day. That our Lord approached each day. Called to be an . . . by the will of God. That's you. Do all to His glory--in His strength. To the praise of His name.
