Purpose Driven Life pt. 5

Hey y'all! Hope you are getting a lot from this book so far! I was out of town and here are the next few days, enjoy!

Day Five: Life is a test and a trust.

"Unless you are faithful in small matters, you won't be faithful in large ones." Luke 16:10

Question: What has happened to me recently that I now realize was a test from God? What are the greatest matters God has entrusted to me?


Immediately the first thing that popped in my head was searching for a job. I knew what God called me to do (youth ministry) now it was my turn to seek where He wanted me to be. God really tested me on perseverance, hope, and patience. I applied for about 250+ jobs before God presented me to St. Francis. Some of the greatest matters that God has entrusted me is leading the youth to God. Showing them what it is like to have a relationship with God and Jesus and to showing them that having this relationship doesn't only happen in church, it happens outside of church as well.

One thing that Rick Warren (the author) says that I think really stands out is what he says in the beginning, "The way you see your life shapes your life." Is that true for you???
