We are called as God’s people, and we are each called individually.
But what is it that we are called to?
I always come back to something I read in the Os Guinness book, ‘The Call’ – “…we are not called to something or somewhere, we are called to Someone.“
When I think on that profound truth I picture a child playing in the backyard on a sunny day, and a father coming outside through the back screen door of the house into the yard, opening his arms and calling to his child by name.
The child stops playing, turns his head to his fathers voice, and runs joyously across the yard straight into his fathers arms.
And I see my whole life as running across the yard into my Fathers arms. That’s what we’re called to.
As continue in this series, ‘Your Life And What Comes After’, I will always keep that picture, that truth, as the basic starting and ending point of it all.
