What Is Your Purpose?

 

In this fast paced world we often forget about our purpose in life. Instead we stay busy trying to make money, advance our career, and live happily ever after with all the other luxuries life has to offer.

Your reason for doing something may be different than mine, but we still all have a purpose. What's yours?

The purpose list is endless. When I think about them it becomes mind-boggling. When do I stop thinking about this challenging mindset?

Baseball is a good example. I think we all can agree that the purpose of a game is to win, and winning leads to other things like becoming World Series Champions. 

Recently my grandson graduated from bootcamp in the Marines. It was a proud day. Our hats go off to all the men and women in the military who sacrifice their life to protect us and keep America strong and free. 

I have many purposes in my own life, but my most important is to maintain a good relationship with God. Reading my Bible and applying its truths tells me how to complete this journey. An act of obedience gives me real peace and confidence in everything I do. Without God I would be a miserable person. Millions of people around the world experience this same relationship with God. 

Obviously we all have a long lists of purposes. Why not make a short lists of your own and rank them as most important to least important? As you look at your lists what do you think? Are you impressed? Do you need to make some changes? My lists keeps changing all the time, hopefully for the better.
