WAKING UP TO A PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE

Purpose is a word that is often tossed around and sometimes misunderstood. For some, it may seem unattainable, while for others, it is the driving force of their lives. However, it is the latter that gears in the right perspective. Waking up to a purpose-driven life involves understanding the reason for your existence and realizing what you can offer to the world around you.


Discovering one’s purpose may not be a one-time task that you can tick off your to-do list. Instead, it is a continuous process that involves the realization of one’s feebleness without Christ, understanding the clarity of God’s instructions, and taking concrete steps to pragmatically utilize the information conferred upon one’s awareness in a wise manner. To wake up to a purpose-driven life, you must first reflect on Christ’s teachings and his passion for souls to be won into God’s Kingdom, meditate on the essential values that he tirelessly inculcated in his disciples during his life time ministry, practically educate others in his belief systems with the unique qualities he deposited within you without ignoring those abilities that sets you apart from the crowd.


It is essential to understand that purpose is not just about engaging in activities for personal aggrandizement. It goes beyond self gratification and involves contributing to the execution and fulfillment of the higher call through the deployment of a God-given wisdom that enables the impartation of a positive difference in people's life. Your purpose should involve serving God in truth and in Spirit with the totality of your resources as you add value to the society meaningfully. It could be in form of contributions made to eradicate social hazards, volunteering to ameliorate the sufferings of people, especially those living below the moderate standard, while sharing God’s love with them, or even launching a venture that assists others in accomplishing heaven’s goals.


Waking up to a purpose-driven life entails taking responsibility for your actions and being intentional about the decisions you make. Every action or decision you take must align with God’s purpose and value for your life. Upholding Christlike beliefs in every decision you make can be empowering, rewarding, and fulfilling. It can also help you avoid feeling lost, unfulfilled, or lacking direction in life.


Realizing God’s purpose for your life is not a difficult task. It only requires your decision to ply the appropriate route which Christ has earmarked as acceptable as you journey through life. Start by reflecting on who he is. Visualize him as your saviour. Ensure you bequeath your life into his control. Be sure to surrender the clay of your talents, passion and valuables into his ever loving hands and he will mold your experiences into a beautified sculpture of righteousness. Then exploit every given opportunity to study and meditate upon his word. Make this an essentials part of the issues you care about. Identify avenues which can be harnessed for the glorification of his Holy Name and dedicate more of your time to it.


It is also essential to develop a listening ear, one that hear his still small voice, speaking to correct and guide at every juncture of life while bearing in mind that he will never lead anyone trusting in him to failure. Optimum satisfaction is his specialty. If you depend on him, he will turn every failure of your’s into streams of ever flowing success. Learn of him, embrace and leverage every opportunity that life gives to stand-out exceptionally. Pray to God to fuel your zeal for his service.


In conclusion, waking up to a purpose-driven life requires concerted effort channeled at discovering the blessedness of the saviour with the intention of adhering strictly to His Will at all times. Once you find God’s given purpose for your life, do not hesitate to make it your driving force. It can help you navigate life’s ups and downs while providing you with a sense of direction and fulfillment. So, start reflecting, exploring, and living intentionally to discover God’s purpose for your life and devote yourself to fulfilling the higher calling.

THE GOOD FRUIT OF EVERY GOOD TREE

  In the Holy Bible, specifically in the book of Matthew chapter 7, verse 17, it is written: "Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit." It is important to remember that most trees are known by the fruit they bear but as we digest this piece, let us not be quick to forget the spiritual principle that states that good actions will always yield good results, just as a good tree will yield good fruit. During the course of living our daily lives, we may have encountered situations where our actions and choices determined the outcomes we experience. This is a true reflection of this moral principle. However, the teachings of JESUS CHRIST as outlined in the Holy Bible must still serve as the guiding light for believers who seek to live righteous and fruitful lives. The fruit of a tree is a reflection of the health and vitality of the tree itself. Similarly, the choices and actions of every Christian showcases the character of g...

The Benevolence That Renews Our Minds

  In a world often fraught with stress, conflict, and uncertainty, finding inner peace and contentment can feel like an elusive dream. However, the ageless wisdom from God Almighty sheds light on the transformative power of a renewed mind while revealing to us the path that leads towards benevolence and fulfilment.   The concept of a renewed mind is emphasized in Romans 12:2. It states, "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." This verse encourages us to network our thoughts and ensure that it is in tune with the truth neptuned in God’s Will. A renewed mind foils the sense of inner peace and harmony. It allows us to view life's challenges through a lens of faith and resilience.

ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS FOR GREATNESS

Most things in life survive with the nutrition they get from ingesting food. Everything we take into our nervous system either acts to heal us or to destroy us. We must therefore ensure that we consider consuming those with the potentials for providing healing and reject every other. Do not think of nourishment only as what we take in through our mouths. What we consume with our eyes, our ears, our noses, our tongues, and our bodies also constitute the nutrients we feed on. Reasonable contribution and inputs that we occasionally deliver during the conversations we engage ourselves in on daily basis can only be possible by feeding on enriching and nourishing nutrients. We are not expected to neglect consistent consumption of healthy food both emotionally, physically and spiritually because they help in making us modern versions of the mind edifice that guarantees the indemnification of moral sanctity. Think about it this way. If moral sanctity blossom, the society will be filled with mo...
