“Who am I?” “Why am I here?”
Age-old questions that, despite popular opinion, can be answered. As a matter of fact, it’s incredibly important for each of us to find the answers as soon as we can.
Many Americans today suffer from depression and anxiety and, while some stems from physical and mental illness, some of our disillusionment in life is also because we have lost focus and lost heart.
God never meant for us to wander aimlessly through life, pushing through the daily grind, just to find that we have more stuff and less peace. God has a purpose for each of us, and he intends for us to know what it is and follow through to its completion. When our purpose is clear and defined, our passion for life is more easily maintained and properly directed.
Purpose is our God-given design; it’s who we are and the work God has called us to do. When we are settled in these aspects of our life, we can begin to see progress toward what some call our destiny or life’s work. One of the ways that we can find our life’s work is to identify our giftedness.
