Called By Christ

"And he called his twelve disciples together and began sending them out two by two, giving them authority to cast out evil spirits. He told them to take nothing for their journey except a walking stick—no food, no traveler’s bag, no money."
MARK 6:7-8
God is the very essence of life. Jesus gave us his spirit at the cross in triumph as he defeated the world. So therefore, you can live through Jesus for life. Seek Jesus, your Lord in all endeavors. He is with you always - seek him.
The closer you get to seeking him - the more you feel his love and spirit. The more prayers are answered, and more people will be drawn to God in obedience for his great love.
Jesus "called” his disciples. He chose you for the purpose of using you for his work. Jesus himself claims you and you have been called - not because of experience, money, influence or any other such human value. No - he chose you because you were empty and therefore can be filled. It is God in you that is required for the work of Jesus to be done. For God to take hold of you from the inside - you must not maintain a line of self-fulfilling work - as that is your will.
It is your direct personal relationship to Jesus that fills you with the spiritual gifts the Lord has prepared for you. The power is in Christ - the faith and obedience for the task are up to you.
