The Assignment Series 1
Dear Friends,
I hope this
finds you all well. The jacaranda trees are in full bloom once again as it is
that time of the year. As an avid gardener I also love seeing the various
flowers blooming and giving colour to gardens. This always points back to how
great our Creator is and how everything responds in due season. I have been
working through some very interesting life lessons that I will be sharing with
you all.
Talking about
seasons the journey continues. I continue to be amazed by the various things
that happen in the day to day lives of us humans. Tragedies befall us, we lose
houses, family members, jobs and other trappings of this world just with a
blink of an eye. As we go through painful moments we should always be delighted
in the Glory of God and also be able to know that we are here for a purpose.
The past two months I have also bee doing a bit of introspection on my own
assignment on earth and how I have been fulfilling it. Remember that each one of us is here
for a purpose, to help somebody somewhere! You may actually be someone who
brings healing to someone sick, be the lifejacket for someone who is drowning,
lifting someone who has fallen and giving a solution to a problem. So we are
all a solution to the equation.
How we play a
part in that solution is in my view what matters. A beautiful question to
always ask is “why was I born? It’s a lovely question whose answer exists and
is very clear. You were created for an exclusive purpose and reason! In earlier
posts I have always mentioned that we all need to align ourselves to that
purpose and everything else then falls into place. Your very function in life
should be different from others. When you look and compare a golf ball and a
sandwich you see the hardness of one and the softness of the other.
Functionality and purpose is different! Thus the purpose differs for each one
of us. So step number 1 is you
need to know what your assignment is. It is important that you align yourself
to the reason for your existence.
Remember your
function is different from that of others!
Look out for the
Assignment series 2
Until next time,
Patrick
You are a child of the universe, no less than
the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
