God Has Something Great in Store for You!
"We know that God causes all things to work together for good
to those who love God, to those who are called according to His
purpose." ROMANS 8:28
***
You've heard that "all things work together for good" countless
times. So why do you still feel so unfulfilled?
Taken in its full context, Romans 8:28 contains a beautiful promise
for you. The key to making this real, is to love God and live life
according to His purpose, not yours. When you surrender your
hopes, dreams, and plans to God and truly let Him lead you, He will
cause everything in your life—the good, the bad, and the
bittersweet—to work toward His ultimate plan for you.
Let these heartfelt devotions from Dr. Tony Evans draw you closer
to God, encourage you to submit to His will, and trust Him to shape
your God-appointed destiny. Discover the unparalleled joy of living
a life of purpose through Jesus Christ!

“The Westminster Shorter Catechism begins by addressing a foundational need in all of us—to identify why we are here. The question is asked, ‘What is the chief end of man?’ The answer: ‘Man’s chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever.’ How do you glorify God? One way is by fulfilling His intended purpose for your life.” (source)
“In your life there are also highways that lead to the center of your purpose. The highways of experience, opportunities, passions, and abilities are all designed to lead you to the intersection of your purpose in God and your calling for your life here on earth. Where these four things intersect—experience, opportunities, passions, and abilities—your purpose starts.” (source)
“When we live without a clear sense of direction, we struggle to know which decisions are most important and how to make them. Life is filled with ambiguity.” (source)
“God can use the ingredients of our lives to accomplish His purpose.” (source)
“Rather, when you are living out your destiny, you measure what you have done according to what God created you to do.” (source)
