"What is my calling today?"

    •    What breaks your heart?
    •    Where are you?
    •    Who is in front of you?
    •    What skills have you been given?
    •    Where is there a need?

Jesus calls ordinary people into an extraordinary life by inviting them to be with him and join his work.

What is my calling and purpose in life?

Matthew 4:16–22 NIV
“the people living in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned.” From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” At once they left their nets and followed him. Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.”
