Day1 - It all starts with God
I have just started reading Rick Warren's The Purpose Driven Life. Thanks to my sis that I will be having a partner while doing the searching of our purposes in our lives. The author have said in the introduction of his book that it would be better to read the book with a partner to share with.
What has been imparted to me upon readng this chapter is that, in the search of one's purpose in life, it should be started from a correct origin as it should be rooted from a firm foundation. As human, what or whom should we refer to to know the purpose we have. Who else shall know for what we are made for but our creator. For everyone of us, God has reason for putting us to where we are.
Being reminded of God to be our creator who knows the purpose why we were put into life, we are led to the fact that it's all about God. Our purpose is to bring to realization the plan that was set for us to accomplish.
As I reflect today, I realize the focus I need to give to the direction that would be set for me as I get deeper with the search I have started. It seems my life is cluttered with the many things I have placed myself into. For the past years, I made myself feel busy by engaging myself to lts of things, as I look for to which I will fit. I try doing anything possible and get a taste of anything new, to test if it suits me or not. But one thing in common is that I don't get myself to much into anything I tried. It has been like I have dipped my feet to so many seas but take them off so quickly.
Prioritizing has always crossed my mind so many times before. But it has always been hard for me to take choices. I know for a fact there's a decision to make of which to leave behind and which to take on along with my journey. But none was made yet.
I was strucked by a sister a while ago who said something a decision to make. She has made her choice. For me, there were so many times that it comes to my mind to give up one thing in my life, I cannot put into words the feeling, but its like that my pasion is no longer there or did I ever get passionated to it from the first place? Maybe I was excited by it being new the first time as well as for the people I meet. but suddenly I have not nourished it well, my fault. Upto the point that doing it becomes just an obligation. Oh i put the blame all to myself, the people are nice its just that I did not reciprocate.
I would like to loosen up my activities. To make more room for time for myself to relax. To be able to give rest to my tiredness.
Now have thought of a new blog entry about my life right now. Actually for the whole time i write this, I am thinking aloud, writing down whichever comes into my mind not minding if it still relates to the title I set above. After all this is my life, that I would like to mold towards getting its purpose according to what God my creator has set for me. I hope very much that I can get a clear picture of my life's purpose after this. Thank God!
