Between My Ears

who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began,

2 Timothy 1:9

I admit that I’m a magnet for phrases. I have no explanation; it just happens. One that is stuck in my brain is from the movie “The Blues Brothers.” It’s when, in unison, John Belushi and Dan Ackroyd yelled, “We’re on a mission from God!”

If you have received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then you have a holy calling. You’re on a mission from God. How wonderful is that! We must not covet anyone else’s calling. That would be insulting to God.

God energized me when I read this passage this morning. I pray He does the same for you.
