Follower of One : Missions For The Rest Of Us

859 Keeping Your Heart Part 2 - 2 Corinthians 4:1

Have you ever been tempted to give up?   Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart," 2 Corinthians 4:1 NASB   This continues the episode from yesterday. We've been given a mission. We talked about that yesterday. You have received a ministry. And since it was God that gave that to you, he will bring his results to pass. He's not working to achieve my goals. So I want him to inform my goals, and to guide my ministry. It's not mine anyway. It's his. I'm just a steward of it.   We're talking about how to keep our heart, or avoid loosing it. Our first way that we're studying is by reminding ourselves we have a ministry. God has a job for us. By his mercy, he gave us a mission, a ministry, a purpose.   Our purpose elevates and energizes us. If you're tempted to lose heart, ask God to remind you about your purpose. Purpose pulls us into the future instead of leaving us stuck as quitters in the past.   Today, ask God to remind you about your purpose. Part of it starts with making Jesus visible. How you do that is up to you. We make some very basic suggestions in this community, but we want to encourage you to find ways that energize and excite you. Then share them with us. We're an online community of believers who are trying to live our our purpose and calling in our present jobs and situations. Why not join us.   Head over to https://community.followerofone.org and create a profile. Join us on a Marketplace Mission Trip, connect with some other believers and step into the ministry God has given you. You have a ministry to everyone you meet. We want to help you see that calling and walk in it.
