What is Your Purpose ?
It's a Question that many people ask.
Here are some ways to Help you Understand Your Purpose.
1. Look to Nature for Inspiration.
What is the Purpose of a Tree ? ~ It Provides Oxygen for us to Breath. It Cleans the Air. It Provides a Home for Nature such as Birds & Squirrels, etc...
So a Tree has Many Purposes that are All Very Important.
The Main Purpose of a Tree though is to
'Simply Be What God Created It To Be'
If a Pine Tree tried to Be like an Oak Tree it would get very Confused and it would create Problems. It would try to grow Acorns instead of Pine Cones and Leaves instead of Pine Needles, (which was Not God's Plan).
You'll Never Discover your Own Purpose by trying to Be Like Other People.
God Created You with Your Own Unique Individual Purpose.
How do you Find Your Purpose ?
~ How does a Pine Tree know 'How' to Be a Pine Tree ?
~ How does a Seed know 'How' to Grow Into a Tree ?
Because when God Created it,
He put Everything it 'Needs In It's Seed'.
In the Same Way, when God Created ' You' He put
'Everything You Need In Your Seed'.
That Seed is Your Soul.
Search Deep In Your Soul and You
Will 'Discover Your Purpose'.
2. God Created Humans 'In His Own Image'. (Genesis 1:27)
Which in essence means our Purpose is to
Resemble God's Character as Much as Possible.
In Your Everyday Life try to Resemble God's Love, Peace & Kindness, His Helpfulness, Generosity & Care, His Honesty, Forgiveness & Tenderness, and His Courage, Gentleness and All of God's other Wonderful Qualities.
By Doing this You Will be:
Fulfilling one of the Main Purposes that God Created You for.
3. You are Responsible for God's Creations.
Every person that God has Ever Created have All got a Basic Fundamental Purpose in Life which can be found in the Bible in Genesis 1:26 and 2:15.
That is:
'To Take Care' of and have 'Responsibility' for 'All of God's Creations'
Before Humans ever Existed God had Already Created Nature.
Trees, Plants, Wildlife, Cattle, Insects, Fish, Birds and
All of God's Amazing and Beautiful Creations
were All here Before we were.
It is one of Everybody's Most Essential
Purposes in Life to
'Look After It'.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
~ Be Who God Created ' You' to Be ~
~ Resemble God's Character ~
~ Look After His Creations ~
and You Will Fulfil Your Purpose.

~ Thank You God ~
Give God Thanks, He Deserves it.
God is the most Wonderful, Loving, Caring being in existence
There is Nothing like God.
God Created Everything. Without God, Nothing would exist.
He Created the Beautiful Trees, the Birds and All of the Wonderful Nature.
God Created Food for us to eat, Water for us to drink and Air to breath.
He Loves us so much that He didn't just Create one type of food for us to eat, but He Blessed us with a Huge variety of Delicious Fruit and Vegetables and gave us the Skills to make Delicious meals with them.
He didn't just give us stagnant dirty water, He gave us Crystal Clear Pure Water to quench our thirst.
And the Air that God Created is Fresh & Pure.
Anything other than this are what has been Polluted by 'people'.
God Always Provides the Best.
These are just a Fraction of the Many things that we should All be Thankful to God for.
He also Gives us Peace, Love and Freedom.
Everything that is Good comes from God, there is No other Source.
Give God Thanks.
Spend a moment everyday to think about some of the Wonderful things that God has Created, and Thank Him for them.
The Stars in the Sky, the Singing of the Birds, the Beauty of a Rainbow, the Rising of the Moon, the Delicate Details of a Single Leaf and the Awe Inspiring Creativity of the Shimmering Feathers of a Pheasant.
There really is an Abundance of things to be Thankful for.
God did Not create Life to be dull. He Filled it with Amazing Wonder.
Don't 'Miss' what God has Blessed You with.
Enjoy His Creativity and Give Him Thanks.
You can be Thankful in many ways.
You can Thank God Personally in Prayer.
You can Thank Him by telling other people about the things You are Grateful for and how God has Blessed You.
A Great way to thank God is by how You live Your Life. Live it to Please God. If you know you shouldn't really be doing something that's wrong, then Don't do it as a sign of Thanks to God.
If there's something you know that you Should be doing that will Please God but you keep putting it off, then 'Get Stared' to Show God that you're Thankful for All the things that He Does.

~ The Faith, Trust and Belief of Mary & Joseph ~

To be Chosen by God to Give Birth to 'His Only Son', and then to 'Look After Him' and 'Raise Him' is the greatest Honor and Privilege that anyone could be given. Mary & Joseph were Engaged to be Married and would have been Excited about their Wedding. They would have been Living their Lives in the Best way they could ~ God's Way. God had Guided people Not to be Intimate and to remain a virgin until After they were Married. At that time the rulers made it that if a women broke God's Guidance, she would be Stoned to death as punishment. Mary & Joseph would have known the Importance of sticking to God's Guidance and they remained virgins until after they were married. They Lived at a time when The Roman Empire made it Very Difficult for people to Live a Happy Life and many people were living in fear. Most people back then knew 'Scripture' and God had said that He will send 'The Messiah' to Set Them Free. Even in Difficult situations there's Always Hope, and You can Be Positive knowing that God Will Help You. Many people though Chose to ignore God's Word and they wanted to be 'In Control', but they actually made the situation worse by Interfering. God had a 'Plan Ready' to send His Son to 'Set People Free', but He needed to Find the Right People who would 'Trust Him' and 'Believe' in 'His Plan'. Mary & Joseph had obviously Demonstrated to God by the Way they had already been 'Living their Lives' that they would 'Trust Him' with His Plan, even though it would have 'Seemed' impossible that Mary could be pregnant as she was a virgin. But they 'Believed' that 'With God, Nothing will be impossible' (Luke 1:37). They must have Shown God that He could 'Trust Them' with His Son, because as well as being an Honor & Privilege to Raise God's Son, it's also a Big Responsibility. When God has a 'Plan' He needs to know that the people He 'Trusts' it with will 'Take Good Care of It' and 'Do the Best they can to Fulfill It'. Even though Mary & Joseph didn't Understand how God's Plan could happen, they 'Welcomed It' with Faith, Trust & Belief in the 'Amazing Abilities of God'. God is Limitless in what He can Achieve. He made the Stars & the Universe, the Flowers & the Trees, the Birds & the Wildlife, the Butterflies & Bees. If God says He will Do something, we can be 'Sure' that He Will Do it. ~ Never Doubt God, Simply Believe. When The Angel told Mary that she would conceive from the Holy Spirit and Give Birth to God's Son, her response was "Let it be done to me according to Your word". ~ WOW, that's Faith. Every time The Angel spoke to Joseph, he Immediately Did what The Angel said, even when it meant getting up in the Night to pack all their belongings and Leave their home to escape to Egypt because King Herod was trying to kill Jesus after He had been Born (see Matthew 2:13-14). ~ WOW, that's Trust. Whatever God Guided Mary & Joseph to 'Do', they both 'Did It' with Faith, Trust & Belief that God's Way is Best. Because of that, God's Plan was Fulfilled. His Son came to earth and was Born as a Human being ~ God in Person, 'God With us'. We can all now Enjoy a 'Personal Relationship' with God through His Son Jesus Christ. That's a Wonderful Blessing for us All. When people 'Do' the 'Will of God', it will always Bless other people as well as themselves. Mary & Joseph would have Lived the Best possible Life because they Believed God's Way and 'Did His Will'. We All have a Lot to be 'Thankful' for to Mary & Joseph. ~ Their Faith has Helped 'Save' people all around the world. ~ Their Trust has Helped 'Set People Free'. ~ Their Belief has Given us a Wonderful example of what can be Achieved when God & people are in Complete Harmony. God still has many 'Plans & Dreams' that He is Waiting to Achieve. He Simply needs to Find the Right people who are 'Willing' to put their 'Faith, Trust & Belief' in Him. ~ Are You 'Willing' ?
~ Positive Bible Verses ~
Jesus answered and said to them, “Have Faith in God". (Mark 11:22) ~ ~ ~ Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5) ~ ~ ~ And without Faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must Believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. (Hebrew 11:6) ~ ~ ~ Blessed is she who Believed, for there will be a Fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.” (Luke 1:45) ~ ~ ~ Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. (Ephesians 3:20)
