What is your purpose?

But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion’s mouth.

– 2 Timothy 4:17

OK, I always say that I choose verses that pop out at me.

Today, I think I need to hear and think on this.

God does not leave us alone when we face overwhelming odds.

Did you know that Paul felt abandoned by others?

But he was not separated from God.

Paul knew that God had a purpose for him that was yet to be fulfilled, so Paul was able to stand strong even in the midst of incredible danger.

Whoa . . .

God has a purpose for ME, and for YOU.

This is the confidence that Paul had, is the knowledge that any man or woman who calls on Jesus should lean on—that God will give you strength, for He has a destiny for you to fulfill.

Have a blessed day!
