Book Cover & Preview Text
Identity, purpose, and legacy all come from God. How so? God is the Creator. He has plans for our lives and eternity is in his hands. The Bible says that God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world, and that we should be holy and blameless in his sight (Ephesians 1:4 AMPC).You exist as a result of God’s creative act. We have been “predestined according to the purposes of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will” (Ephesians 1:11 ESV). God’s will is his good plan for your life. This book invites you to the divine will of God. God calls us to live from him. God calls us to live lives that please him and are right. Living God’s will is the call of everyone. In living the will of God, we take his advice found in the Bible. There are things only realized in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and who we access with confidence through our faith in him (Ephesians 3:11–12 ESV). In Christ are eternal promises for our glory and God’s praise. Jesus is the way to the life that God is pleased with, so we follow him while we live out our time on earth. We’re renewed when we believe in the Son of God.
