Many people today talk about purpose, but very few are actually living in it. To be able to live in purpose requires knowing what it is. Purpose is more than just a cool sounding word used by ministers and motivational speakers. Everyone is born with purpose, whether they believe it or not. In fact there is a verse in the bible that says "The purpose in a mans heart is like deep waters, but a man of understanding draws it out." Before you can live in purpose you must have one key element...Understanding!
First you must understand what purpose is.
Purpose is defined as "the reason for which something is done or created, or for which
something exists." Most people, today, either drive a car, ride with someone who does, or utilize public transportation. Prior to the creation of the first automobile people were riding on horses and in carriages. Everyone got along fine because this was the way things were. However, their was someone who was created, " with purpose", to bring change to this situation. The idea of the automobile would revolutionize the world as they knew it. This brought about a more efficient way to travel, a faster way to get from place to place.
Second, you must have an understanding of the unique gifts the Creator has given you.
What do you do exceptionally well?!
What is it that no one else can do quite like you?!
What is that thing you would do as a career for free because of your passion for it?
If you can answer these questions you will have at least scratched the surface of why you are here, or what your purpose is. We each possess certain gifts, given by the creator, to solve problems. It is my personal belief that for every problem in the earth the solution for it is resting within a person. However, the sad reality is that far to many people have no clue what they possess.
