2 Corinthians 5:17-20
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
Purpose is not about what you achieve, but about who you are becoming in Christ and how you are being transformed by His grace. Your identity is secure in Him, and He is faithful to complete the work He began in you. As you stand firm in the Lord, remember that your purpose is both personal and communal—rooted in your relationship with Jesus and lived out in the context of His people. Surrender afresh to Him, and let your life tell the story of His glory.
