His Purpose

In Romans 8:26-30, Paul shares an amazing picture with us. He starts out by telling us that the Holy Spirit is moving in the lives of God’s people. Helping us to pray, interceding with God on our behalf, moving to shape and mold us. Paul then tells us that God is working in the lives of His people, “according to his purpose.” God has a plan for you and I. In verse 29, Paul tells us that the movement of God is all about transformation. God is changing us to fit the picture He has for us. God is conforming us into the image of His Son. With these powerful words, we are reminded that God is working in our lives every day. In fact, God is working in every moment to shape our nature and character. He wants us to think and act and reflect the attitude of Jesus. God is working in you and in me to help us look like Jesus. With God at work, what can stand in our way?
