Purpose in Life

The word of the Lord came to me.

   Jeremiah 1:4

Today's Bible Reading:  Jeremiah 1:4-10.

Many people wonder about their purpose in life. The Bible gives us the answer. In Jeremiah 1:4-10, we see that God not only gives us purpose—He also equips us to fulfil it.

Created for a Purpose (v 4-5):

God tells Jeremiah, “I formed you… I knew you… I set you apart.” Our purpose begins with God and is rooted in His Word. If you are searching for meaning, start by listening to Him.

No More Excuses (v 6): Like Jeremiah, we often feel inadequate—too young, too old, not skilled enough. But God does not call us based on our abilities; He calls us to trust Him. Finding purpose means stepping out in faith and obedience.

Equipped by God (v 7-10): God tells Jeremiah, “I am with you” and “I will put My words in your mouth.” When God calls, He also equips. We are not left on our own.

If you feel lost or unsure of your purpose, turn to God. Seek Him in prayer and through His Word. Trust in Jesus Christ and let Him guide you into the life you were created to live.

Prayer: Father God, I thank You, in Jesus name, that You give meaning and purpose to life. Amen.
