Hello brothers & sisters, im so stoked and so should you be!!!!!, for did you know that God created us, designed, and custom built us for his purpose & plan on this earth!, he wired us individually with spiritual gifts and talents that make us unique like no other! ever heard the exspression " they broke the mould when they made me " well guess what its true!
God created us to worship him , to love him and grow christlikeness in character & heart everyday, so that we can go out into the world , serve others, do his will , and tell others of the good news!, Struggle and hardships are good because through sufferings we gain goodness and strength through Gods grace as did jesus on the cross, our model for getting through the tough days we face, to put on the new, and cast off the old, to live to honor, respect, and love and serve God, to give in return for all he accomplished on the cross in the body of his only son.
If you you go through life trying to do it your way, then its gonna end quickly and in a dead end, life each day is a Test, and a trust, obedience like Noah, JOB, Paul, David,and many other of Gods disiples,
WHAT MATTERS IS WORKING TOWARD OUR ETERNITY,WHEN GOD WILL SAY "WELL DONE GOOD SERVENT!, COME AND ENJOY YOUR REWARD "
WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE TREAT OTHERS HAS ETERNAL IMPLICATIONS DID YOU KNOW THAT ?
When others serve money, greed , pornographic and sexual immoralty, drugs, alcohol, and self centeredness, we serve a purpose that will last forever because we live on a broken planet, and this is just the dress rehersal for the main show, so getting it right is important!
Humility is one of the greatest gifts we can serve with , doing something nobody likes doing because it is boring or meanial, or below you, think of how jesus would act to a situation , THEN DO IT!, he washed the disiples feet which was like a shoe shine boy in those days, but it had deep sugnificance to it,know God isn't mad at you about what you have done wrong, or messed up, he is MAD ABOUT YOU!
KNOW WHO YOU ARE
KNOW WHO YOUR LIVING FOR
KNOW YOUR GOD GIVEN VOCATION IN LIFE ( YOUR JOB , WHAT YOUR GOOD AT )
CONCENTRATE ON GOD, STAY FOCUSED
MEDITATION
COLLABORATION ( WORK AS A SMALL GROUP AS JESUS NEEDED A SMALL GROUP TO WORK EFFECTIVELY)
RECREATION- TAKE TIME TO RECHARGE
KNOW GOD LOVES YOU AND DESIGNED YOUR SHAPE INSIDE AND OUT FOR HIS PURPOSE NOT YOURS!
God bless and please read pastor Rick warrens book " The purpose driven life... what on earth am i here for ", you can get it on Amazon, or any good christian bookstore, better still go to www.saddlebackchurch.com.
Take care and god bless Richard
