Purpose

“We must continually remind ourselves of the purpose of life.  We are not destined to happiness, nor to health, but to holiness….God has only one intended destiny for mankind—holiness.  His only goal is to produce saints.  God is not some eternal blessing-machine for people to use, and He did not come to save us out of pity–He came to save us because He created us to be holy.”  -Oswald Chambers

    Excellent! Don't you just love OC?

    We must not get caught up like the multitude who followed Jesus because of what he did/does and not because of who He was/is. That's the trap of the "blessing machine".

    I choose to be set apart for the Master.
