169: Don’t Ever Give Up on Your God-given Purpose
Main Points From the Show
Do you ever get discouraged, feel like your work has little value, and begin to doubt if God can use you in your current circumstances?
You’re not alone. We all waver between certainty and doubt at times. We want to walk in God’s will, but when things don’t turn out, it’s easy to think we’re on the wrong path and doubt our purpose.
In this episode, we explore how sometimes God’s definition of success differs from ours and how He wants us to continue in His plan, even when we don’t see the results we desire. Listen in and learn how to find meaning in your work, whether it looks like you thought it would or not.

Quotes from the Show
“One Day we will see the whole. We will discover that our human definitions of failure were far removed from God’s.” Beth More, Now That Faith Has Come – Study of Galatians
“The divine principle of sowing and reaping is good news for…those who believe what we do now matters then.” Beth More, Now That Faith Has Come – Study of Galatians
Verses Referenced
Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith. Galatians 6:7-10 NLT (emphasis mine)
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. 1 Peter 1:6-7a NLT
Now that I am old and gray,
do not abandon me, O God.
Let me proclaim your power to this new generation,
your mighty miracles to all who come after me. Psalm 71:18 NLT
