“Your
future is worth God dying for, imagine you living for it” – Dr Myles Munroe
A
four year old girl had the below conversation with her mum:
Baby: why is the moon round?
Mum:
God created it that way my dear.
Baby: So God created it like that?
Mum:
Yes and for a purpose and He does that for everything He made.
Baby: You mean the purpose God created Dad is to go
to the office daily too…
Mum:
No my dear dad had to go to the office
to earn a living!
Wow!
What a thought from a child.
What
has existed first without thought?
What
makes you wake up every morning without an alarm?
What
can you do selflessly even without pay?
Before
you answer the questions please permit me to share some of my little
discoveries:
There
is something so powerful that:
§
It
keeps you focused & gets you going
§
It
keeps you from distractions
§
It
ignites passion, create enthusiasm
§
It
opens up your destiny
§
Differentiates
the relevant from the irrelevant
§
Determines
your company, gets the right people in your boat
§
Defines
your relationships
§
Makes
you an influencer
§
Gives
you reason to live
§
Turns
labour to joy
§
It
makes you overcome setbacks
§
It
makes you know you when you are there!
That
thing is PURPOSE. An anticipated outcome that is intended.
Remember
this:
§
Purpose
is the end that makes the beginning of a thing worthwhile.
§
God
is a God of purpose.
§ Every man has a purpose. It’s in you.
§
Purpose
can be discovered.
While
on the journey remember plans may change but purpose does not. “We humans keep
brainstorming options and plans, but God's purpose prevails” Prov 19:21
Always
think forward!
