In Romans 1:1, Paul states that his call into apostleship means that he has been set apart for the good news of God. That purpose really doesn't differ from any other believer, except in the sending out sense (apostle = sent out). Isn't my purpose really about the good news that God is reconciling the world to Himself, not counting our sins against us? So, among those who I work with; the agnostics, the practicing atheists, those disinterested in God; what will God have me do today for that purpose of the ministry of reconciliation? What better news can there be? This is what I have been designed for. And yet it scares the willies out of me. OK, deep breath. Now to get after it!
