Well Duh

I saw it, it was there glaringly and in my face. DO WHAT YOU WERE BORN TO DO. I am going to repeat myself and I’m not going to be sorry for doing so. This message seems timely especially for right now. Do you not understand that you may feel like a small and insignificant person but to someone else you’re everything, someone very special. You may not know what you were born to do but I guarantee you God had a plan and a purpose for your life.

Don’t take my word for it, read the Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. It will tell you plainly that you DO have a purpose. Not convinced – read on…

Hebrews 12:1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us”

“Trusting God completely means having faith that He knows what is best for your life. You expect Him to keep His promises, help you with problems, and do the impossible when necessary.” ― Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here for?

“Experience is not what happens to you. It is what you do with what happens to you. Don’t waste your pain; use it to help others.” ― Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here for?

“You cannot fulfil God's purposes for your life while focusing on your own plans. ” ― Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here for?

“Those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.” ― Rick Warren, The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here for?

It’s funny because when I figured out my purpose I actually didn’t figure it out. I thought it was being a hometeam (church small group) leader but after a while God opened my eyes, He told me that this was a short chapter in my life. Only 6 years worth. That the balance of my life needed to be with a purpose too. So I had to rethink what my real purpose is. After prayer and thought I realized that the thing that made me a decent hometeam leader is love and encouragement. Doing that was such a labor of love and my God given gift through that was encouragement.

So the question is how do I use that gift? I write this blog, I want to publish a book of devotionals that I pray will give hope, love and joy to many who read it.

I want to leave this earth a better place than I found it. I want my Grandchildren to know Joy and love because I adore them. I want God to bless them to the skies and beyond.

I want this for you – yes you- reading this. I pray Gods blessings upon you and joy. May this Christmas season show you how much God loves you and how very necessary you ARE to this world and those in it.

Dear Heavenly Father
