Purpose- Luke 9:57-62

 Purpose- Luke 9:57-62
These verses show clearly what Jesus taught about purpose and fulfilling the work that God calls us to do.

When we decided to become followers of Jesus we signed up for service to the King of kings.  He promised to be with us always,  he promised to take care of all our earthly physical needs and he also promised to send us the Holy Spirit to guide us in all things.

We have no need of anything when we choose to follow Jesus. All he asks is that we stay true to His revealed purpose for our lives. There should be no excuses when we know our purpose in God's Kingdom. The temporary things of this life should have no effect on our service to the King.

So what if we don't have the comforts of our own homes, what does it matter if we have to move away from our familiar environment and what profit will it be if we walk away from our designed purpose so we can receive an earthly inheritance.

Jesus concluded by saying, 'No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the Kingdom of God'.

Let us continue to pursue His divine purpose for our lives.
