Purpose Found In Jesus
Author of Purpose in You: 50 Devotionals for Tween and Teen Girls on Placing Their Purpose in God, Millie Thomas writes to encourage girls to discover that their identity and purpose are rooted in who they are in Christ.
Helping Girls Ground Their Everyday Lives in Jesus
Through short and sweet Scripture-rooted devotions, Purpose in You helps girls navigate:
-
“Concentrating on listening and having compassion for others took my mind off of comparing myself.” -Purpose in You, Day 12
-
“I became more confident in who I am as a child of God after learning that I am on my own unique path.” -Purpose in You, Day 12
-
“A friend’s opinion and love for you may change, but God never does.” -Purpose in You, Day 2
-
“I noticed a change in my attitude and energy as I took complaining out of my day.” -Purpose in You, Day 15
-
“When you rejoice in God‘s goodness, not waiting for times to get easier or happier, you will find that hope seeps into the darkest of places.” -Purpose in You, Day 47
-
“There are a million reasons why you should love God. I don’t have time to list them all, but here are several that come to the forefront of my mind.” -Purpose in You, Day 13
“People will see Jesus through you as you reach out to those you love and also to those who need a friend.” -Purpose in You, Day 33
-
“My purpose is not to have the best plans, friends, outfit, athleticism, grades, or looks, but to love God, love others, and become more like Jesus.” -Purpose in You, Day 9
-
“The ocean is so big, that the majority of it has not even been explored. And still, God’s love is greater. So great, that our human minds cannot even begin to understand it. Greater than all the love you could ever give out in your lifetime.” -Purpose in You, Day 13

Meet the Author
Hi, I'm Millie! I’m a 22-year-old college student who loves writing about Jesus, coffee, the ocean, animals, laughing with my sisters, spending time with friends and family, hanging out with my two dogs, Banks and Frances, going on drives and blasting music with friends, and saying yes to a spontaneous adventure (and a good nap!). I have a heart for encouraging girls that they are deeply loved by God—and I’m so glad you’re here!
