What is our purpose?

Have you ever wondered why you were created? Do you ever wonder what your purpose is?
I would dare say most of us have wondered these things at one time or another.
First of all let's tackle the question "why were we created". This is a question that may have more than one answer. But for me the most important answer would be "to have a relationship with God".
There are many times in Scripture that we read how much our Lord desires a relationship with us.
 In 1 John 1 we read that we have fellowship with the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. There are many more verses that remind us how much God loves us and desires to have that relationship with us.
This makes me think our most important purpose is to love our Lord with all our heart and have that personal relationship with Him.
With that being said, we all have more than one purpose. Do you know what yours is? Do you fret over it? Do you get anxious thinking about it? I would like to encourage you, don't. You may be thinking easy for me to say. Not really. We all have become anxious at one time or another. Actually I think when we try too hard, forget that the Lord has called us to a specific purpose, therefore He will enable us, then we fret over our purpose. We often forget that He is in charge, and we were created for His glory. So why would He ask us to do something if He was not going to pave the way for us, and enable us to complete the task He has asked of us? I honestly believe our Lord would not do that to us. He loves us too much.
There are plenty of times the Lord has asked me to do something that I had never done before. To be honest, I was very nervous about it. I actually was hesitant. But I had to stand on God's promise, He would help me through it. An example-this blog. This was totally a new thing for me. I had not written anything like this before. But I felt so strongly that God had asked me to do this. I knew I had to be obedient. And God has indeed paved the way. This blog has been all around the world, reaching every continent. And that has nothing to do with what I have done, but everything to do with what God has done.
So let me encourage you faithful readers, you have a purpose. God created you to not only have a relationship with Him, but also to serve Him and do the task He has asked of you. All for His glory.
God will enable you, teach you , and be right by your side as you move forward in faith.
I have to think how much this must please our Lord God when we take a leap of faith and jump in with our all to bring Him glory, and do what He has asked of us.
Our Lord loves us so much. He loves when we spend time with Him, and He loves when we obey Him. I know He has so much more for every one of us. Take that leap of faith. You will not regret it.
