Have you ever asked yourself this question? If you have not, please do it once in a while. It helps to know if are you living purposefully or you are just occupying space.
I believe that we are all here on earth for a specific purpose. God created us unique knowing that each one of us has something different to offer. The book of Romans 12 v 6 : "We have different gifts according to the Grace given to us". These gifts which are given to us, to serve God and ultimately lead us to discovering our purpose. We are nothing without God and we are not being productive if we do not live a purposeful life.
The problem is that we let things and situations define us and we do not let God define us. Things well never fulfill our happiness but our Greatest success is knowing your purpose and fulfilling it. Your pain, hurt and miserable life can eventually be a testimony that will lead you to your assignment. It is not wrong to have dreams and want a better life and enjoying yourself. The aim is to live a life that is pleasing to God.
The book of Matthew 6:33 "Seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well". God knows our needs, but he wants a relationship with us and through that relationship we will get to know him more and he will reveal things to us. There are somethings that we did not understand, that will make sense when spending time with God.
If you want a relationship with God you need to be thirsty to know him and the only way we can know him is by reading the word of God. Everyday take time to meditate on the word and listen to what God has to say. Take a journey with God and trust him, because he says "he will never leave us nor forsake us".
Let God define you.
