”???”

God wants you to discover, embrace, and grow in who He created you to be.

Here’s the problem:

You don’t know the possibilities. 

“In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12:6-8‬ ‭NLT‬‬ 

“Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. This will continue until we all come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature in the Lord, measuring up to the full and complete standard of Christ.”  ‭Ephesians‬ ‭4:11-13‬ ‭NLT‬‬

You don’t believe the promises. 

“Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.”  ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭10:23‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.”  ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11:6‬ ‭NLT‬‬

You aren’t faithful to the process. 

““If you love me, obey my commandments.”  ‭‭John‬ ‭14:15‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“But Samuel replied, “What is more pleasing to the Lord: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to his voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering the fat of rams. Rebellion is as sinful as witchcraft, and stubbornness as bad as worshiping idols. So because you have rejected the command of the Lord, he has rejected you as king.” ‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭15:22-23‬ ‭NLT‬‬ 

“My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless. For if keeping the law could make us right with God, then there was no need for Christ to die.”  ‭‭Galatians‬ ‭2:20-21‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Be open.

Believe.

Obey. 

“This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!””  ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭5:17-20‬ ‭NLT‬
