Have you ever felt lost, having a successful career and job but still unfulfilled?
Have you ever felt lost, having a job but still unfulfilled? Imagine a life where you simply go through your daily activities—waiting for the end of each day, then the next, marking time until you grow old and die. There are times when I go through my daily routine and feel exhausted. In those moments, I stop to wonder: What would life be like without purpose?
Colossians 1:27 (NIV)
"To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."
Purpose makes life beautiful. It is through purpose that our true selves emerge. The scripture, "Christ in us, the hope of glory," is fulfilled when we live according to God’s purpose for our lives. Purpose is more than just a motive or reason; it is the driving force behind our creation. It is the reason we exist and the plan written for our lives before we even showed up.
Without purpose, life feels like a journey with no destination. I can relate to this because before I discovered my purpose, I often asked a lot of "whys." I am someone who always seeks a reason before taking action. When making decisions, I would ask myself: If I start this, will I be able to continue until my time on earth is done?
Yes, I am a child of God, but life felt boring until I discovered and aligned with my purpose. Our purpose can only be discovered in God’s Word, and that Word is God. It is in the Lord that we discover our true reason for existence.
The beauty of purpose lies in its ability to bring clarity and focus to our lives. It's interesting how, when purpose is discussed, many people immediately think it’s about serving on the altar. But purpose isn’t limited to that. Purpose can be found in the marketplace just as much as it can be found in ministry.
Our life purpose is what keeps our hearts eager, anticipating what each day holds. The enemy wants to keep us blind to our purpose. The fact is, he is not omniscient; he doesn't know what the Lord has written for you. That's why most of his strategies always push us to the place of discovery of our purpose.
God is willing to show and walk us through discovering who we are in Him. The Lord's intention is to bring us to a place of spiritual possibilities, where He speaks to us directly showing us who we truly are. He wants us to work on the plan He has written. He wants to help you discover yourself.
The Eden experience can only be experienced when will discover and walk in our purpose that when we enjoy living.
