The Bible says that “we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do” (Ephesians 2v10). Commenting on this verse, Tony Campolo, author, minister and former spiritual advisor to U.S. President Bill Clinton says, “There is something that you will never do unless you come to Jesus. There is something wonderful that God will never be able to accomplish through you until you surrender to do His will. There is something of ultimate importance that God wants you to achieve for Him. God has a special mission for you to perform in His name. When you come to grips with Jesus, you will come to know that purpose. When you discern His mission for you, you will know what your life is all about. Then, and only then, will your quest for meaning and purpose be realised.”
