All tagged purpose

As men and women we have an idea of what our purpose in life might be, we know our own desires and mold it around the pleasure we find in them, but that imagined purpose is worldly, self-gratifying, and a fantasy. However, as Christians we spend a great deal of time listening and seeking the greater purpose that God has for our lives, and in trying to understand how His love, combined with His will, and our earthly suffering, leads us to His very real purpose in our lives.

We each have purposes that we have established for our lives, and as we go through our days we discover and grasp hold of them. Some have been given to us by the world, some by our families, others we have established for ourselves, but none can compare with the purpose that God lays before us when we search out His will and answer His call. Today we will dedicate our time to one or more of these, but which will we allot our time to, and is it the most precious one... the one that above all others we must finish; that must be fulfilled in our lifetime?
