Encouragement Devotion: Stepping into Your Purpose Courageously
You Were Created On Purpose, For a Purpose
You weren’t created to blend in or live a small, fearful life. God handcrafted you with a specific purpose in mind—one that impacts others, glorifies Him, and brings deep fulfillment to your soul.
But walking in purpose often means stepping into the unknown. It can feel risky, intimidating, and far beyond your comfort zone. Fear whispers that you’re not enough. But God declares that He is with you, and that’s more than enough.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to move forward. You just need a willing heart and the courage to take the next step. God will meet you there—equipping you, guiding you, and strengthening you every step of the way.
