YOUR PURPOSE
Paul confessed to Timothy, "Thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, PURPOSE, faith, longsuffering, love, patience" 2 Timothy 3:10).
Do you know your own purpose in life? Do those around you know your purpose? Without purpose we have no zest for life.
As a mother, we have no doubt about our purpose. God has chosen us to reveal His maternal and nurturing heart to the world. He has chosen us to diligently teach and train the children He has given us for righteousness and the destiny He has for them. We can wake up in the morning with a smile on our face and a spring in our step because we know what we are meant to be doing.
As I raised our children, God gave me a vision from 1 Thessalonians 3:23, "I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming our Lord Jesus Christ."
My purpose and vision was to not only minister to their bodies, but their souls and spirits, in order to present them WHOLE before the Father in eternity. Wow. This is certainly a full-time career. And what purpose!
