What on earth am I here for?

July 18, 2009 by  

I remember this question being asked so clearly as I read the pages of the the best seller for many years, Pastor Rick Warren’s ” THe Purpose Driven Life”, and yet its ringing in my ears again as I have communicated to lots of people who are questioning the same thing. There is a purpose for our lives, nothing is by accident, God had us in mind from the moment of conception until now. Often times when the hustle and bustle of life continues, we sometimes get stuck and forget that we have a purpose to fufill.
I remember my dad used to preach a message and used the analogy of the chair and its purpose, and how we never question whether or not the chair will hold us, we instantly see it and sit down, because we have faith enough to believe that it will accomplish the purpose in which it was created.
I believe this is how God wants us to be. We need to have the faith to know there is a purpose for our lives. We must fufill that purpose. Discouragment will set in many times to take you off the path of the reason you were created..
Using myself as an example, I have come to recognize that at each stage of life, there is a new purpose, sometimes to bring happiness to those around you, sometimes to create a learning experience for someone else by your mistakes, however no matter where you find yourself in life, I have learned the reason I was created was to glorify the father, to honor and reverence Him in every way I can.
If I am not bringing glory to God then I am defeating the purpose in which I was created!
I was created to worship Him, whether washing dishes, visiting the sick, styling someones hair, or simply resting in the evening, I understand that with all my doing, I must worship God! This is my purpose!
So if you were confused about your purpose, simply remind yourself, that no matter what your will praise and bring glory to God!
You will remind your Daddy God that you were His idea and therefore you will trust Him in every area of your life, and you will fufill purpose!
God Bless You
