Serve The Purposes Of God
Acts
13:36 David served God's purposes in his own time, and then he died, was
buried with his ancestors,
In your life, in your
time, serve God's purposes. You'll have various regrets in your life. Some will
be regrets for things you did. Others will be regrets for things you didn't do.
Two
Cornell sociologists have done a study that concluded that over the short term we will have more regrets for
things we've done, however, over the long term
we have more regrets over the things we didn't do. They said that during the
average week regrets over things we have done would outnumber things we haven't
done 53% to 47%.
But when
people look at their lives as a whole regrets over things we didn't do will
outnumber things we did do by 84% to 16%.
As people
get older they will often wish they'd spent more time with family or loved
ones. They'll wish they'd saved or prepared for their live more actively. They'll
sometimes wish they didn't waste time by pursuing temporary things and not long
lasting endeavors and relationships.
What
could God be telling you to do now or even for your life? Step out in faith on
His word, Peter did it and he walked on the water!
Maybe

It
could be anything, just be like David and serve the purposes of God in
your lifetime.
It's NEVER too early or too late.
Prayer -
Father, I want to serve you and the purposes that you have for me. I don't want to delay, I want to begin right now. I thank you that you have prepared me and you will continue to prepare me to serve you faithfully in my lifetime, amen.
