Approved By God, 2 Timothy 2:15a

Approved By God

2 Timothy 2:15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.

As followers of Christ, we are to live in such a way that our Father, who is in heaven, is pleased with us. We are not only his workman, we are his workmanship. He has created us to do good works in his name. Therefor we work and strive to do well in all we do, knowing that we are actually working for him. All we do is done for him.

K and A, You too are God's workmanship, created by him to do good. You are his special creation. There are things he has for you to do. If you are like me at all, you ask yourself at times, what does have God instore for me? What am I to do in this life? Remember this, daughters do not wait for the Lord to tell you what to do... you already know the good you ought to do. You have the Scriptures to show you that.

Also, remember that your greatest ability is your availability. Be ready and willing to go where ever he calls you. In the meantime, be obedient to what you already know. He is, even now, preparing you for what lay ahead. Trust him for that. You may not know where God is calling you, but you do know where is placed you now... serve him as one approved, then you can count on him to direct your paths.
