Dear friends,
I have had some
awesome conversations in the past month as a result of this series. I am moved
by what people have begun to do as a result of their seeking to fulfil the
mandate they have here on earth. Being practical is the best and I encourage
you to pay your rent on earth as it were!
I was battling
on how to conclude this because as someone who realized his purpose and managed
to start working at it at an early age, I always want to urge others to find
fulfilment, joy and happiness in fulfilling their own purpose. Remember we all
have different tasks that were set for us to accomplish. I will lean heavily on
the Word of God in my conclusion. We were chosen by God before we were formed.
The Lord made us and shaped us into the people we are. He knows our behaviour,
our strengths, weaknesses, capabilities and our character. These unique
personalities that we have should be used to achieve a specific purpose. God is
going to use us for the fulfilment of His plan. Think for a moment when you try
to be like someone . If you try to be someone else you then want to be a carbon
copy of what is already in existence, in fact God doesn’t need you as someone
else! You are trying to be a piece of the puzzle that God already has! So stop
trying to be like someone, be you and fit into the puzzle the way God wants you
to. You were made in a precise manner, for a specific purpose and only you will
serve that purpose. When God made you, He wanted you, when He chose you, He wanted
you!
So in
conclusion, the understanding that I have no doubts about is that we all have
been chosen as God’s treasure and for His purpose. Our destiny can be
discovered and lived out as we walk in harmony with God our creator. Thus we
can only know the true reason for our existence when we are close to Him and we
allow Him to direct our path.
As the year
comes to an end, I hope you have been on that path of living a life fulfilling
your purpose? How have you been paying your rent of being on earth?
Until next time,
Patrick
We make a living by what we get; we make a
life by what we give.
