The Promise Of Life Eternal & The Possibility Of Life Renewed…Take The Casual Living Option Off The Table
Those who long to live making a difference are always on the search for inspiration and instruction that will lead to focused intentionality.
The truth is, that we are created with this longing in our hearts. We deeply desire that our lives count for something. We want them to be significant!
In their book, Soul Purpose: Making a Difference in Life and Work, authors Alistair Mackenzie, Annette Dunham, and Wayne Kirkland make this case for us in a profound way.
Here is their piercingly clear message to us,
“The truth is that God has called us. Called us! This is our destiny – to discover how we can turn God’s purpose for us into a reality. God intended it to be. He made all of us for a purpose. That’s why there is a yearning in our hearts to live significantly.”
I believe this and my heart does indeed long for this reality! In fact, I have been thinking a lot about all of this of late. Let me share with you what has captured me.

There is something quite powerful about the influence of promises and possibilities.
Promises inspire our faith for the future and possibilities instruct our focus for today … and both feed our intentionality.
The promise of life eternal certainly provides great inspiration for us. We live looking forward, investing in our eternal reward and seeking to inherit all that the Father has prepared for us.
The possibility of life renewed instructs our hearts to believe for more. In strengthening our faith we seed hope …. and this is what enables all things to become new.
With all of this in play, it is clear that the casual living option is off the table.
