Good morning to everyone. Grace and peace be with you.
Well, we are in temper tantrum mode in the weather circle today. Started with some blustering yesterday and has ended up with us on the floor, kicking and screaming, “It's not fair.” Yesterday I wore a short-sleeve shirt to church and walked around outside without a jacket. Right now, while sitting at my desk, I am contemplating a hoodie and a blanket over the window to muffle the sound of the wind outside. The sound of the wind makes me want to be cold. Haha.
Yesterday’s sermon was about our purpose. 1) Do you understand that there is a purpose in your life, by God? But, more importantly … 2) Do you believe it? With an added 3) Do you know what it is?
Today’s world would have you think that if you are not all over television or radio, if you are not on stage in front of millions, if you are not a content creator with x-amount of followers, you have no purpose. HOWEVER, that is not the case. Each and every one of us has a purpose and an avenue to prosper. Now, do not fall into the world’s view of prosper as meaning rich … prospering has many avenues. You can prosper in peace … not worrying about things when the bottom falls out … but walking with confidence that God has this. You can prosper by being good at what you do. You can prosper by recognizing hidden signals that others are hurting. You can prosper in prayer. Jeremiah 29:11 says that “He” has plans for us to prosper … not to be wealthy. We will prosper in our talents.
The third thing was ‘Do you know what your purpose is?’ Specifically, your purpose. Do you know what it is that God has placed in your path to walk out? Your designed purpose. Sometimes I wonder if my purpose is to be a pain in the bottom. I do that pretty well. Sometimes I think that my purpose is directness. Sometimes I wonder what my purpose is. Yep, sure do.
Overall, I know that my purpose is to tell stories with meaning. So that one person, somewhere, will be encouraged to take the bold step and know that they are not alone and that ‘their’ purpose is not dark … but Light.
I do not anticipate becoming a billionaire by my writings…at least not in the sense of dollar signs. However, I would like to think that my writings would be a billionaire of helps to others in need. That is what I see my purpose as.
Just because you are not ‘famous’, does not mean that you lack a purpose. Maybe your purpose is to raise kids and then your kids have that lime lite. (Kind of like David wanting to build a temple but God told him NO, that is not your job … it was Solomons.)
Today I encourage you to go to the Father in prayer and pray over your designed purpose. Ask God to enlighten any areas that you are unsure of and to give you guidance. Be open to His teachings and embrace His wisdom.
Be blessed today my friends.
