Matthew 11:28-30

Most of us are going through the motion of living, but when we accept Jesus into our life, he will give us purpose and direction.  The story of Bartimaeus is about more than being without physical sight, it is also about a spiritual blindness.

If we could get through our life on our own, most of us would do so; but the truth is we need some help from on high.  Some of us want to use God as a cosmic bellhop to ensure that our existence is successful and secure and for people to think that we have been walking in our destiny.

 The truth is, His purpose is that we all accept His provision for salvation in Jesus Christ.  As soon as we accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, then we walk into the divine purpose of God.  God gave Jesus to us as our Savior; so anything that excludes Jesus is not in God’s will.

 Let’s not be fooled today, when we find God in the person of Jesus Christ we find life. We have every reason to live, because he makes our purpose people.  When we are regenerated, it is so we may be a blessing to someone else.

 May the Lord bless you, May the Lord keep you, is my prayer.
