God's purpose

“The Lord will fulfil His purpose for me; Your love, O Lord, endures forever – do not abandon the works of Your hands.” Psalm 138:8
Most of us, at some stage or other, wonder what God’s purpose for our lives is. Sometimes it might be obvious, by the opportunities that we have or the talents He has given us. But at other times God’s purpose may seem to be much more obscure. Also, God has many purposes for us that might arise at different times throughout our lives. For instance, He has purpose in the trials that come our way – to build our character and teach us to have faith and patience. He has purpose in all situations that we encounter, so that we might be conformed to the image of Christ. And of course His ultimate purpose is that we would be justified, sanctified, and glorified, and spend eternity with Him in heaven.
But regardless of which purposes of God are in view, we can be sure that He will fulfil them all - “being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus” (Phil. 1:6). God doesn’t start something and leave it unfinished. He will not abandon us – He loves us too much for that.
