Purpose

Do you believe there is a place inside every soul that longs to fulfill a great purpose? Do you also believe every soul has a great purpose to fill?  I do.  And it seems like a perfect match, right?

Perhaps.  But so many times, purpose has been lost in one's attempt to build it on their own merit. How much more sense does it make to water the purpose that is planted inside each of us at creation?

All humanity was created for this special purpose of God: to know and be known by Him. This is an inherent purpose - one every soul has been given. Specific purposes come into place through our own direct calling or trial and error in life; but our inherent purpose should always be known.  What a shame it would be to awake at God's throne one day and have missed the whole big picture!!!

Know Him, and be known by Him! He has already done His part! What do you and I need to be doing today to hold up our part of this relationship?

Even if you never feel like you have discovered a specific purpose, you have this purpose:

"...God can always point to us as the examples of the incredible wealth of His favor and kindness towards us, as shown in all He has done for us through Christ Jesus...
"For we are God's masterpiece, He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago."
Eph. 2:7 & 10

Be a MASTERPIECE today!! You are one, whether you believe it or not.
