Choose Wisely

Sat next to Joe Coors recently at a weekly luncheon called The Narrow Gate here in Denver. Joe got us all thinking with Proverbs 29:18...

18 Where there is no vision [no redemptive revelation of God], the people perish; but he who keeps the law [of God, which includes that of man]—blessed (happy, fortunate, and enviable) is he (Amplified).

Joe explained that in Hebrew "perish "means to wander and be lawless.

It breaks my heart and the heart of God when people choose not to follow God's way. Seeking God first brings about insight, wisdom and purpose.

After becoming a new creation by accepting Jesus, Joe Coors has rejected his family's beer business. His purpose is to be used by God to bring glory to Him by building up His kingdom. On The CALL Vocational & Life Purpose Guide, Joe scores highest in the gift/life purpose of CONTRIBUTING (giving).

Joe knows his calling and is living with purpose. You can tell by his fruit. He is blessed (happy, fortunate and enviable).

How about you? Do you know your purpose? Are you blessed? The CALL is a diagnostic tool to help you discover your life purpose.

Be blessed by choosing wisely,
