Are You Still Not Sure If God Has Called You? One question that troubles many Christians is, "What is God's purpose for my life? Has He really called me?" Perhaps you have asked yourself the same question—I know I did. When I first responded to the gospel, I believed God had called me. But as time went on, trials, doubts, and personal weaknesses led me to wonder if I had been mistaken. Because I doubted myself, my service to the Lord became unstable. I found myself leaving and returning to ministry again and again. That was the pattern of my life after I came to Christ. But as I studied the Scriptures, I realized that I had been looking for assurance in the wrong place. I was searching for certainty in my feelings and experiences, while God points us to His Word. Today, I can confidently say: Jesus has called me. How can I be so sure? Because the Bible clearly teaches that God calls people through the gospel. Paul wrote: «"He called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ." —2 Thessalonians 2:14» When the gospel is preached, Christ Himself is calling people to come to Him. That is why Jesus said: «"Come to Me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." —Matthew 11:28» He also said: «"Follow Me." —Mark 1:17» This call is not limited to a select few. It is extended to everyone who hears the gospel. The real question is not, "Has Jesus called me?" but "Will I respond to His call?" Many times, the greatest obstacle to assurance is not God—it is our own doubt. You may think that it is only another person inviting you to follow Christ. But in reality, Christians are simply God's servants, proclaiming His message. They are not the source of the call. Jesus is. Through the gospel, He invites you to believe and follow Him. As Paul reminds us: «"Faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." —Romans 10:17» So stop looking for reasons to believe that God has not called you. And do not depend on feelings, signs, or extraordinary experiences to prove that He has. The foundation of your assurance is not your emotions—it is the Word of God. If you have heard the gospel of Christ, then Christ is calling you. Your response should be what He asks of every disciple: repent of your sins, believe in Him, confess Him as Lord, be baptized according to His command for the forgiveness of sins, and continue faithfully as His disciple (Mark 16:15–16; Acts 2:38; Romans 6:3–4; Matthew 28:19–20). If you have heard the gospel, do not harden your heart. Respond to Christ's call with faith and obedient discipleship, for His call is real, and His promises are sure. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BQn6uyXrW/
