Your purpose in life is that which gives you a reason for living, the reason why God put you here on earth. Your purpose in life is an expression of your personal significance to God. Your purpose in life will be unique to you, based on God’s personalized plan for you.
🗣️But what if I don’t feel significant?
🙏 You already have God-given significance … not because of anything you have done, but because of what Christ has done for you.
• You were significant enough for God to create you in His image.
“Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.’ ” (Genesis 1:26)
• You were significant enough for the Lord to design a preplanned future for you.
“ ‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hop more than many sparrows.” (Luke 12:6–7)
• You were significant enough for Jesus to die on the cross for you.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)
• Realize that Jesus would not die for anything or anyone insignificant. You, indeed, have God-given worth.
“Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” (Luke 12:6–7)
