There is perhaps no greater frustration in life than sensing that we are here for a purpose, much greater than ourselves, and yet not understanding what that purpose may be. This is why we have been working our way through ‘40 Days of Purpose’ i.e. looking at God’s reasons for giving us life. In our next study we affirm that God created and shaped us not just to be consumers but to make a valuable contribution. Jesus said “Your attitude must be like my own for I did not come to be served but to serve.” (Matt 20:28) One of the things which makes heaven, heavenly is the fact that people have learned to serve each other. On the other hand in our consumer driven world we are not so good at making ourselves available and we often have a ‘do not disturb’ sign written across our face. As a result some things very precious are lost to us including our sense of self worth. We serve God by serving other people and Jesus has given us the perfect example. Come and discover what we can learn from him.

See you Sunday!
