Walking in the Father's Pleasure

In our Family Fellowship Sunday services this past Sunday, we took a deep look at the source of our identity and ambitions for life. In Matthew 3:13-18, Jesus demonstrates what it means to trade your dreams for the mission of God. We learned that the mission of God is more exciting, more fulfilling and provides more joy than anything we could ever dream up for ourselves because our identity isn’t contingent on how well we perform. Following Jesus means that we willingly trade our dreams for His mission and lead our families to do the same.

Do you find yourself more motivated by your own dreams or by the mission God has for you? Do you trust God enough to trade your dreams for His mission and lead your family to do the same?
