Lead the life

After I Corinthians 7:17-24 

Lead the life I assigned

you, doing the work

I called you to. You

are designed to do

this work, called

to fulfill the task

you’re appointed to.

Your calling is not

to make money,

prosper, gain fame,

be honored by all.

No, your calling is

to serve, remaining

in God, using the skills,

abilities, and talents

I gave you. This

calling is for life.
