What are you doing on purpose?
What are you doing on purpose Today?…This month…This year? How much time do you have? Today…this month…this year… 20 years or more? Who or what is on that list? What is it that is paramountly important to you? Maybe you never set a describable purpose when you were young. Maybe you lost it or never had it after college. Maybe you were sidetracked or distracted by life and its twisty roads of decisions. Not all of them so clearly right or wrong.
Life takes a lot out of us at times. Family, work, fun, failures, deaths, memories and maybe some regrets not to mention struggling to deal with our demons. (Whatever they are, and we all have some, whatever you may call them.)
We are a composite of our shadows and failures, as well as our victories, and we each get to decide what we will do with them. Let them hinder us, stunt our growth, or grow with them by giving them over to Christ and the cross? They should never be a forever burden. Memories yes, scars maybe them too, but Jesus always shows the way to freedom and peace …in Him. Anything less is not of God. Sometimes a huge part of that is forgiving ourselves …be kind to yourself in whatever life has brought you. Forgiveness is the ultimate freedom. Jesus already paid for that,…don’t ask him to do it again.
What is the future you want? What are your dreams… Hopes? and with more than a little work… what do you imagine your destiny to be?
I can only Imagine… and so should you…
Pour out your heart to God and he will fill your life with the most extraordinary plans and dreams while giving you the most amazing legacy to love by.
It begins by giving yourself away! Jerimiah 29:11
