The Real Purpose Driven Life

"I want to know what's my purpose, why am I here?" "What am I being called to do?"

Have you ever asked yourself this? We all have at one point or another. We are wired to want to live a purposeful life. We are wired to want to live a satisfying life. But as Believers we are called to live a set-apart life. Not to merely seek after our ambitions but to seek after Christ.

Before Christ we wonder what we need to do to make our lives better, but in Christ we should be focused on what we could do to bring glory to God.

We exist for God. To bring Him glory and honor and to fulfill His purpose.

I dont know about you all, but this gives me rest and peace when anxiety creeps on me. I always thought that I had to do some magnificent thing to bring God glory but really it can simply be me sharing the Gospel with a coworker or donating to a charity or volunteering on a Saturday morning at a charity or spending time with those who are hurting or even just praying for the lost.

Our purpose as believers is to live a life that reflects the love of God. You don't have to be a Pastor, first lady or even a missionary to do this. Whatever you do make sure its bringing God the glory He is due!

1 Corithians 10:31 "So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God"

Good, grief.

This morning my mom called. She had called me late last night but I was asleep. This morning she called again and I instantly knew something was off. I woke up this morning expecting to have a great day just because I went to bed at a good time the night before and woke up and made a smoothie. I've always hated Mondays, a lot of the worse days of my life or most frustrating days seemed to be on Mondays. Today was no different. I called my mom back and she begin to tell me that my cousin Edward aka "Junior" died last night. Not only did he die but he died in the basement of my Aunts, his mom's house. The same place my other cousin Eric died 5 years ago. They were brothers, Eric was the youngest. I was heartbroken and instantly broke out in tears. Eric was one of my favorite cousins on my mom's side of the family, we shared a love for art. When he died just 8 days after I moved to Dallas, I was devastated. I moved to Dallas on July 7, 2017, and he died on July 15th....
