Highest Callings- Part 1

Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God… I John 3:1 (KJV)

There are many callings in the Bible, and rightly so- because God is so big and we have a big job to do. However, there are three callings that we must first have in place or nothing else will work.

The first calling is to know God has called us to Himself to make Himself known to us as Father. He makes Himself known as Father through His love and what He has done for us. He has called us to let Him love us. Without Him, we are nothing and we must recognize this. Nothing else matters without God, and our lives come up empty, vain, and with no purpose, meaning or direction.

Get this one truth right and everything else will be right. God’s love calls us up higher and takes us deeper into Him. When we are lost in God, then we are found in Him.

When we live daily, not knowing we are loved, life is hard. But, when we answer God’s call to let Him love us, we find our worth and know we are accepted and loved. Our worth is found in His great love. When we are hurt, our Father can love us back to wholeness. He shows His love daily. Don’t let pain or rejection blind your eyes to the Father’s love for you.

When God calls, come to Him and let Him love you over and over again. Receive the love of the Father, and you will find true relationship in His arms. The highest calling is to let the Father love you. He calls Himself our Father so we know that we have a heavenly Father who is there for us to love us and be whatever we need Him to be. Don’t worry, your heavenly Father watches over you to meet every need.
