Discover Your Purpose in Christ
Manage episode 429302342 series 3365478
Welcome to CROWD Church. In today's talk, Sharon Edmundson dives into the amazing truth that we're God's workmanship, each of us created with a unique purpose and significance. In her talk Sharon emphasises that, like a beautifully crafted cabinet made with care and intention, we're intricately designed by God. We're not here by chance; there's a divine purpose behind our existence. This weeks message shakes up the usual ways people think about self-worth, contrasting the biblical view with what society often tells us: our value doesn't come from what we achieve but from being God's creation, loved and cherished by Him.
Key Takeaways:
- We are God's Workmanship: Just as a carefully crafted cabinet is created for a specific purpose, we are designed by God with care and intentionality. Our worth and identity come from being God's creation, not from our achievements or societal standards.
- Balanced View of Self: The biblical perspective on human worth prevents both pride and low self-esteem. It encourages us to see ourselves with "sober judgment," recognising our value as God's creation while fostering gratitude and humility.
- Purpose in God: Our purpose is not self-created but discovered through our relationship with God. By seeking His guidance and understanding His word, we can align with the specific roles and talents He has entrusted to us, using them to serve others and glorify Him.
