Our Labor of Love
When God calls you, the Holy Spirit provides everything needed to accomplish His will.

The moment we place our trust in Jesus as our Savior, we become a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). This is an act of love by the heavenly Father—He gives us new life and adopts us into His family. He also has a plan for every believer, with specific work for each to accomplish.
Once we are saved, the rest of our days are to be spent fulfilling God’s purposes. We are called to be Jesus’ disciples—acting on His behalf and working zealously for God, as the Savior did. Although salvation is by grace—not grace-plus-works—deeds are God’s will for us (Ephesians 2:10). The Holy Spirit carries out Jesus’ agenda on earth through the works of His followers.
God has committed Himself to guiding and equipping believers. No matter what He calls us to do, His Holy Spirit will teach us all we need to know—such as effective ways of relating, pouring ourselves out on behalf of others, and sharing our faith. He expects us to make serving Him a priority, and to surrender our resources and abilities for His use.
While we are living on earth, our lifestyle is to be one of enthusiastic, committed service in the cause of Christ. Let your work for God be a true labor of love.
