Read MoreDid you ever receive an open invitation?
An invitation that is always good, no expiration, no fine print? This sort of invitation speaks of friendship and camaraderie—"You're welcome here anytime. Take as much as you want"— an invite without boundary or end. Offense offers that kind of invitation to us.

This means that a very intentional God created you in your mother’s womb with a purpose already in mind. Not only did He have a purpose in mind, but every one of your days were written down in His book before one of them came to be! (Psalm 139:13-16).
