God Wants To Use You

1. Designed for a Purpose

•	Discuss the following verses as a group:
Ephesians 2:10
Psalm 139:13-18

(In particular, reflect upon what they say about how God has made you, and how to discover our purpose in life)

•	The NLT translates Eph 2:10 “We are God’s masterpiece”
How does is make you feel that you are God’s masterpiece?
What things help you feel this way? What hinders you?

•	Each person complete the “personal assessment” and summarise your results to the group.

•	What “good works” do you think God designed you to do?

•	How does the fact that God wants to use you fit in with:
o	your work
o	your family and friends
o	your ministry in the church/homegroup

•	Use your group prayer time to celebrate each others uniqueness and contribution to the group.
