Determining what we are called to do or what God desires us to pursue can be a daunting task! From what career or vocation to pursue, what school to attend, and many other major life decisions. While God may not specific give you a sign that says to go to a specific school or to become a certain vocation, we can take practical steps to determine the natural gifts and abilities God has given to us.
Nick discusses steps to determine the natural gifts and abilities God gives to each of us. Once we understand or discover those gifts, we can then narrow down the calling God has placed on our life. It is not always obvious, God can reveal it to us in many ways. Nick discusses the most general ways to get you started on the path.
It is important we use the gifts God has given us and are fulfilled in life. Are you miserable in your job? Miserable thinking about your degree? Are you sure it is what you should be pursuing? If we are doing what we love and know that it is God's calling on our life it will not feel like work. It could be your job while not ideal is the means to allow you to perform ministry activities. God can give you peace or contentment in that position to allow you to fulfill your calling in ministry.
Examine your skills, pray and seek God's help, ask friends for advice, and evaluate what you know or have been told. Using those simple steps you can start to determine what your calling is, from there we all have to find how to use them in the right way to honor God.
