 Vision – Part 3
Where there is no vision, the people perish.
In a democracy every person has the right to dream his or her own dreams about the future. But at the cross, those of us who have sworn allegiance to Christ have surrendered that right. Listen: "You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God" (1Corinthians 6:19-20 ). Honor God? What does that mean? It means discovering His purpose for your life and refusing to march to the beat of any other drummer. With that in mind, consider these words: "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do" (Ephesians 2:10). Your life has been pre-planned. You cannot just take your talents, experiences, opportunities and education and run off in any direction you please. No, you lost that right at Calvary. But then why would you dream of doing such a thing? What could possibly be more fulfilling than God's purpose for your life? And what could be more tragic than missing out on it? Maybe up until now your vision has been making money, but it is the kind of vision that finds you at the end of life wondering what you could have done, should have done, with your brief stay on this planet. You cannot wring enough meaning out of secular accomplishments to satisfy your soul. The hole you are trying to fill has an eternal dimension that only Christ can satisfy. That is why it is imperative for you to pray, "Lord, help me to discover and fulfill your vision for my life."
