Fulfilling Your Calling

“The difference is not emotion because emotion comes and goes. The difference is when you rearrange your life to the priorities that God has for your life.”

“Discovering your calling happens at the intersection of affinity (what breaks your heart), ability (what are your gifts), and necessity (what is the need).”

“A shift from 'volunteering' to 'serving' changes the focus from what works for us to using our God-given gifts to meet real needs in God's kingdom.”

“Illustration of Jerry, a retired nuclear engineer who uses his gift for fixing broken things on the church facilities team, saving the church $150,000 on campus renovations.”

“Nehemiah approached Artaxerxes—the ruler of a brutal empire—not because he lacked fear, but because his focus was on the sovereign God rather than his scary circumstances.”

“Doubt is not the opposite of faith; fear is. Faith propels you into action, while fear paralyzes you.”

“A good plan executed today with passion is better than a perfect plan months from now without it.”

“Walking in God's calling isn't about waiting for one 'big thing'; it's simply about doing the next right step of obedience.”
