My question for God: I feel as if I'm supposed to do more in life. How can God help me discover what I was meant to do? A moment with God: I brought glory to you here on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. [John 17:4] Everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. [Romans 11:36] Dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God beacuse of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice - the kind he will find acceptable... Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. [Romans 12:1-2] ----------------------- We are busier than ever - in fact, many of us are downright frenzied. At the end of another frantic day, we slump in a chair or fall into a bed and ask ourselves, "What did we do today? Did I make any difference?" Our lives often seem to lack a compelling purpose, a purpose worthy of our being created in God's image. And this aimlessness can lead to apathy and despair. But God has both a general purpose and a specific purpose for you. God has given you spiritual gifts and wants you to use them to make a unique contribution in your sphere of influence. The more you fulfill your general purpose, the more clear your specific purpose will become. God calls you to partner with him in his great redemptive plan for the world. Using your gifts to help him fulfill that purpose will help you understand what is truly important for you to accomplish each day and to bring meaning to your work. It can fuel your energy and ignite your dreams. ----------------- To all my friends out there: A lot of times, in this fast-paced world, we questioned our purpose in life, we questioned the things we do in life. But friend, don't give up, there is purpose and meaning in everything that happens and happened. If there is no such thing as rain, how will we know what is sunny? It's the same with happiness and sadness. All I can say is perservere and smile! But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
