Offer what you have written to God, and ask that it may bear fruit as you listen to the call of God for you. Close with the Our Father or the following prayer:
|
Loving God,
may I take on the mind and heart of Christ, that I may hear your call for my life and embrace your world through my prayer, my work, and my life with others, in Jesus Christ. Amen.
|
I praise you,
for I am fearfully and
wonderfully made.
(Psalm 139:14)
for I am fearfully and
wonderfully made.
(Psalm 139:14)
Day 2 (part 2).
Called According to How I Am Made
You
are "wonderfully made," and you have qualities and gifts which are given not
only for your individual good, but which are also intended to be a blessing
for the world. As you
ponder how you are made, always be open to the possibility that God may
reveal gifts of which you are not yet aware. Be realistic, however. For example, if you weigh 90 pounds, it is unlikely that playing football would be your greatest gift to the world!
