The question is not whether we have a sense of divine purpose, but how we’re trying to satisfy it.
God changes us from the inside out, and we live the rest of our lives knowing we are here for a reason.
God wants us to evaluate ourselves by how deep and strong our faith is. He doesn’t evaluate our spiritual condition by looking at how we appear on the surface. The depth of our faith determines how much of a difference we can make in the lives of those around us.
When we are insecure, it can be easy to feel like we are a “nobody going nowhere.”
God’s dream is to free us from the things we feel imprisoned by. He wants us to feel comforted, confident, and happy.
When we experience testing, pain and failure in our lives, it is easy to give into fear and doubt. “Flipping the Switch” is about learning to let God use our personal passion, ambition, dreams, pain, and setbacks for his greater purpose of saving lives.
There are many things that aim to undermine our faith: our guilt, different diagnoses, depression, anxiety, fear, and various circumstances. God wants to build our faith and confidence to be so strong it can handle anything thrown our way.
Jesus had a mission! Everything he did in his life fit into the mission God had for him. Do you know your mission? Jesus accomplished his mission. Are you accomplishing that mission?
