The Discovery: Exploring God’s Call On Your Life Sample
According to Luke 19:10, Jesus came to seek and save the lost. He became the sacrifice for sin so that man could be reconciled to God. Seems like He’s got everything covered, so what’s left for us to do?
As followers of Jesus, we are His ambassadors. An ambassador has two jobs, 1) to communicate effectively for the person he/she represents and 2) to embody the ideals and principles of the person he/she represents. Ambassadors are sent with all the authority of the person they represent, making the position of ambassador one of high honor and responsibility.
This is the ministry of every believer, an assignment given at salvation (2 Corinthians 4:1). Although the daily tasks we carry out may differ, we are all ambassadors, sent to point others to Jesus Christ and the reconciliation that He made possible.

About this Plan
Welcome! We are so excited that you want to explore God’s unique plan for your life. Remember, ultimately, the goal of this reading plan is not to figure out what your future job might be, but to hear from God about what it means to be called, so make sure to give it your best effort! Enjoy the journey! Here are just a few tips as you jump in: • Come prepared mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. • Shut out all distractions. • Start with prayer. Keep communication between you and God open and easy by confessing any unconfessed sin, accepting His forgiveness, and asking Him to speak to your heart through Bible study. • Take your time. Read all of the verses listed, listen for God’s voice. You may want to write in a journal as you go so you can track your spiritual progress and remember what God says to you.
