Do you ever question what your purpose is on this earth? There are many self-help books to help you figure this out and even at the company I work for, I went through a very valuable process to determine my “Sense of Purpose”… At the end of the activity, I was left with a simple statement about how I would like to be remembered at the end of my life…if at the end of my life, people viewed me as an Established and Accomplished, Spiritually Fulfilled Husband, Father and Friend, then I should have lived a full life…full of Purpose.
After a very intriguing service this morning at church, I began to think about the difference between “Sense of Purpose” and what my “Purpose” truly is…
It was evident that my Pastor’s purpose to Preach the Good Word of God and of Salvation! (I learn something new every week)
But, am I on my way to fulfilling the Purpose God created me for? We all are blessed with a variety of Talents, some are very artistic (painting/ etc.), some people are inspirational and can lift anyone’s spirits with a simple smile, some are great educators, and some are great leaders. I was thinking about it…do we have a long-term purpose, or do we have a new purpose every day? Or is it BOTH?
I think it is BOTH and that is why I have been thinking about it so much lately. Each and Every day, you have the opportunity to live out a purposeful day! What are your talents? What are you going to use them for today and tomorrow and for the next 10 years?
Today, I hope to encourage you to use your gifts and abilities to do something amazing! Teach me something new…share your story with me.
God Blessed You…Have an Impact with your blessings!
