Your Monday Hug Devotion for December 9, 2024: Answering the Call

Answering the Call: Your Monday Hug Devotion 🌟

Happy Monday! Can you believe we’re already in the second week of Advent? This season is such a special time to prepare—not just for Christmas, but for how we live out the unique purpose God has for each of us.

This week, we’re talking about:

• Recognizing the amazing talents you’ve been given
• How Advent calls us to prepare and step into our purpose
• Encouragement to use your gifts today to make a difference

Advent reminds us that preparation isn’t passive—it’s active! Just like lighting the candles on the Advent wreath, every step we take to use our gifts brings a little more light into the world.

After you watch this week’s devotion, take a moment to think about how you can embrace your unique calling and share hope with those around you.

💜 I’ve also created a free Weekly Reflection journaling page to help you explore your gifts and reflect on how you can use them this Advent season. Download Here

Answering the Call

As God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk. - 1 Corinthians 7:17

It is terribly important that you heed God’s calling by discovering and developing your talents He has given to you. If you want to make a difference in the world around you and in the lives of your family and friends, you must discover your gifts and begin using them today - not tomorrow or at some distant time in the future.

Author Barbara Johnson spoke for women of every generation when she said, "We are all on our way somewhere. We'll get there if we just keep going."

Every person on earth possesses at least one important gift. Have you found your special calling? If not, keep searching until you find it. God has important work for you to do, and the time to begin that work is now.

“If God has called you, do not spend time looking over your shoulder to see who is following you.” - Corrie ten Boom
