Finding your purpose thought of the day

If you are not walking and acting love, then you aren’t walking on the right path for your life; the God-given path of your purpose.

Therefore…

Walk in love and you will walk smack dab into your God-given purpose.

Take responsibility for YOU

"... Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life." 

- Galatians 6:4-5 MSG

This is your God-given life!  Make the most of it!

Nitpicken"

“… Don’t be nitpickers: Use your head – and heart! – to discern what is right, to test what is authentically right.” John 7:21-24 MSG

Use your God-given heart and wisdom to figure it (replace it with your unique situation) out. Stop over-analyzing, all it is doing is complicating your life more than it needs to be. Plus, you’ll be filled with a lot more peace and joy if you do.

A message on Fear from Pastor Pete Vossler of Crosswinds Church Reno Nevada

This is a great Facebook post that I wanted to share:

"Fear always whispers “you’ll never be secure unless you get more.” I know that all of us have this thought many times. Our main desire is happiness, but we don’t know really what happiness looks like. Is it more money? Is it more time? Is it in the accumulation of things? How about the perfect relationship that we have made up, and looks like, in our mind? Happy people don’t follow money, or things, or relationships, they follow their God-given passion. On the outside there are people that look like they have it all: money, freedom, friends, and family, but do they have the one thing they want most-happiness? We have a tendency to look at the outward and make judgments on what we see. How do you know if you would not be horrified at the home life, alienated kids, a spouse who resented their obsession with work, and no time to kick back? Maybe you’re reading this and thinking “Yeah, but this doesn’t apply to me. In this situation I know I could be happy!” Money and things cannot buy happiness no matter what we try. The Apostle Paul explains it this way: “I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength” (Php 4: 11-13).When you peruse God’s purpose for your life; status, money, and things are only secondary. Your real status symbols are salvation, spiritual growth, a secure home, special friends, and the satisfaction of doing what God called you to do. 

Be blessed in His will for you today

“Joshua addressed the People of Israel: “How long are you going to sit around on your hands, putting off taking possession of the land that God, the God of your ancestors, has given you?...”

Joshua 18:3-5, The MSG

In the same way, how long before you, child of God, stand up and move forward with the plan that God has placed in your heart?  It is time, God is with you, and whatever you need to follow the dreams God has given you, He will provide.  This is your time, this is your God-given life, so start to live and enjoy the great blessings He has stored up just for you!

This God-given life.

“So then, brace up and reinvigorate and set right your slackened and weakend and drooping hands and strengthen your feebled and palsied and tottering knees, [Isa. 35:3]

And cut through and make firm and plain and smooth, straight paths for your feet [yes, make them safe and upright and happy paths go in the right directions], so that the lame and halting [limbs] may not be out of joint but rather may be cured.” Hebrews 12:12-13 AMPC

In other words, stand up and fight for this God-given life of yours ~ stand up and live like God has planned for you to do!!
