The Alliance eCommunity: The Alliance eCommunity -> Discovering Your Purpose

All of us long to understand why we're here on this planet, what our purpose is. These words from Hudson Taylor are challenging and insightful as we seek to discover our purpose:

"Finding one's purpose with God can be a strange and mysterious journey. Or it can be as plain as asking God for a task and then watching your desire for that task grow within you.

Problem is, most of us forget to ask God to fill us with a fervent spirit to serve him. Then years later, we wake up and realize we had our life. We made our small choices . . . our safe choices.

But somehow we missed the richness of following our God down an unchartered path."

Consider this: Ask God for a fervent spirit to serve him, do with all your heart the tasks he puts in front of you to do, and follow him down an unchartered path.
