You were made for more... Since God created you, He has a plan for you that is far greater than anything you can imagine! Don't believe me? In the beginning, God transformed a lump of useless matter and turned it into a life-sustaining planet. He gathered up dirt and formed it into a human. Then, He removed a piece of the man's side and built a woman. Later, He picked a childless man to become the ancestor of countless people. He made a shepherd into a king. He called an exiled girl to become a queen. A rag-tag group of fisherman, rebels, and outcasts were chosen to turn the world upside down with the Gospel. I could go on, but you get the point.

God did not make us so that we can just coast through life or barely get by, hoping to make it to heaven (fingers crossed!) NO WAY!!! You were made for much more than the life you are settling for. God has a plan for you that far exceeds what you expect or what you can accomplish on your own. Surrender to His leading.
