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"

An uncomfortable look formed on her face and she said something about how HR doesn’t allow religion in the workplace. I wasn’t sure if she was kidding or serious, so I asked if it offended her. She said, “Well, it’s definitely weird.” Losing Friends I’ve noticed a difference in some friendships since  dedicating my life fully to God . At times it comes in the form of mocking, especially after sharing a great story that feels highly inspiring, but it also comes in the form of rejection. At first this new dynamic was hard to swallow; it felt like I was being torn between two worlds. It was great getting invites to dinner or drinks with fri...
