Romans 1:1 “Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God–” Paul knew God had a very valuable purpose for his life.  His purpose was to serve his Savior in whatever capacity God wanted him to serve.  He listened and served–not himself–but rather, his Heavenly Father.  Today he enjoys living with his Savior.How does all this apply to you and me?  Substitude your name where you see Paul’s name.  Really, reread this passage with your name instead of Paul’s.  You have a God given purpose and as Paul, someday you will receive the rewards of accomplishing that God ordained purpose.
