Writer Dallas Willard writes about the drive to significance as “a simple extension of the creative impulse of God that gave us being”. Willard goes on to say that we were built to count as “water is made to run downhill”. As I have written before, we all count. Most of us do not think that we are enough and that we don’t count. Somewhere in our lives we were probably told that lie by a teacher, parent or another person. Unfortunately we took it to heart and our lives began to reflect this lack of self-esteem. We can change this. We need to right now believe our life can be a significant one, directed outwardly toward others. As Willard concludes, “the search for significance is hardwired into our natural drive and calls us to follow God and use it for his own significant ends”.
Matthew 4:14 – Come, follow me, Jesus said, and I will send you out to fish for people.
Romans 8:1 – There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
