A Daily Devotion for Tuesday, July 14

1Corinthians 12: 12-31

verses 29-31

Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret? But eagerly desire the greater gifts.

We all want to be useful, have a role to play in this life, have a purpose. I do believe God has given each of us such a purpose. It is our own special gift. It may be large and ”important”, or it may be smaller and more modest, but it is still important. It is the reason God put each of us on this earth. At any age, we can find that purpose and nurture it. We may be already helping it to grow, and we don’t realize it. I believe God will give us better vision of that purpose, the closer we grow to Him.

Holy Father, Maker of heaven and earth, Creator of all things, show me my way. Help me to see my place and my purpose. I am important, because you chose to give me life. I long to be everything you intended for me to be. Amen
