What’s My Calling?
“The greatest tragedy in life is not death, but life without reason. It is dangerous to be alive and not know why you were given life.” — Myles Munroe

What is my Calling?
My calling is using my gifts, talents and abilities in the places God leads me—from work to church to relationships—to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever.
Galatians 6:4-5 MSG
Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that. Don’t be impressed with yourself. Don’t compare yourself with others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.

1 Peter 4:10-11 NKJV
As each one has received a GIFT, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold GRACE of God. If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Romans 12:6-8 NIV
We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.
