Many people struggle determining what they want to be when they grow up. Jesus never had this dilemma, he was destined to do the Father’s will.

1. We have a spiritual calling: When we are in relationship with Jesus He causes us to desire the things of God. God has a plan for everyone.
2. We need devotional commitment: We need to set aside everything not of God to become closer to Him.
3. We need faithful confidence: Trusting God can be difficult. Jesus was confident God had a plan for Him and we should be confident too!
4. Faithful confidence does not preclude confusion: Faith requires following God’s plan even when we don’t know where we’re headed.
