Called.

Another Brian Houston gem from his book, For this I was Born.

"Saved! What a miraculous provision that is, but salvation is not one dimensional. It is much more than raising a hand and praying a salvation prayer. Furthermore, it is not only about the afterlife. Millions of Christ's followers have experienced the joy of salvation, but I have a vital question for you. Are you simply living as one who is saved, or have you taken up the challenge to live as one who is called? It is important that we grasp the revelation that we are not only saved, but we are also called for a purpose.
Sandwiched between your salvation (or your connection to the Father) and God's grace (his favor, blessing, and enabling) is your calling and purpose."
