We are called to be a light. In order to share the Gospel, we need to know who we are through Christ. We focused a lot this weekend on different things we worship and how we see ourselves. They asked us: What is it in your life that you believe will make you ultimately happy and whole? What compared to God and make you ultimately happy? And it's true. As I took time to reflect on my own life, I found that everything I aimed for that I felt would make me happy, never satisfied. Only God.
They also spoke on this passage: "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared for us to do." (Ephesians 2:10). God created each person with a specific will. Every strength and insecurity will be used for God's plan that He is preparing for us to do. So why do we choose to be someone different, when the person we were created to be is perfect for God's plan. Why do we compare ourselves to others when were made specifically for what God has planned for us?
So, we use our strengths and weaknesses to allow God to shine through us. So we can be a light in the darkness. And allow His will to be done here on Earth.
