What is Your Purpose?

Money without purpose is just money. However, money with a purpose can be used to change the world. It feeds the poor, builds shelters, and changes lives and souls for the kingdom of God. Money with a godly pur­pose can be revolutionary.

As you grow closer to Him, He will help you find your purpose–your unique calling.
