Designed for Life

There are steps you can take which will enable your parishioners to integrate their lives and their belief in God, so that all becomes a seamless walk of faith.

Believers can be introduced to the world of giftedness by recalling and describing occasions where they experienced joy and a sense of love in the doing of something. During the process of discovering a certain pattern of behavior repeated throughout their lives, a startling realization should come over them: they are literally designed to be a certain person with a certain role and mission in life.

From this discovery comes the answer to that ancient question faced by every person of faith. Why am I here? What is my purpose? What is God's will for my life? The fact that people can now learn and articulate the personal marching orders embodied in their soul, changes life from a guessing game to a quest for fulfillment of a defined potential; essentially a destiny.

The clarity of this charter from the Lord compels an investment of our lives to be directed by the parameters of our giftedness. Not only our calling, but everything else about where and how we live is so determined. We live out that calling as the only way God can be loved with our whole heart, mind, and strength ..... the only we can love others and even ourselves. Effectively, we have a single vocation in life; all is integrated into being the person God designed us to be.

So any church, large, very large, or very small can embrace what has been ignored in the modem age. The concern that God has expressed in every life about vocation and calling can no longer be dismissed by the church as worldly and unspiritual. It is God who beckons us to love the world with the gifts bestowed on us for that purpose.
