NOT MY CHOICE

Today's reading: Titus

"This letter is from Paul, a slave of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I have been sent to bring faith to those God has chosen and to teach them to know the truth that shows them how to live godly lives." Titus 1:1 NLT

Paul had been sent to proclaim the Good News to those God had chosen. Not the people groups Paul felt most at ease with. Not the demographics that Paul had more in common with. Not his nearest and dearest, not his closest friends.

It's the same for us.

God ordains to whom we will go.

He had plans and purposes for each and every stop we make, pause we take and conversation we engage in.

It's probably not where we think we're able to make the biggest impact.

It's not always our sphere of influence.

Should we live lives that impact those around us, we sure should!

But should we also realize that who we are called to minister to is ordained by God--absolutely!

Watch for opportunities to speak to people for Him. It might be in locations, chats and situations where you would least expect it.
