Believing in purpose


Ultimately believing in your specific purpose is all that matters. We spend too much time believing in what others believe of us or for us, that we fail to understand our own purpose. We can spend an entire life time living in the unconscious. Believing in our own God given destiny of what we are here on this planet for is the reason to which our existence emanates. I’ve read that most people spend their mid twenties trying to figure it out. In trying to figure out an existence, they spend years making mistakes until they realize they are hurting themselves, eventually to stumble upon what is that they are suppose to be doing.

Although, this can seem like a great way to begin to truly live; to complete many tasks in order to conduct trial and error routines, this can be a waste of time. What if as parents we were enlightened to know what our child’s natural gift is and encouraged them toward it? Our children would be better off, I say this because not everyone who went through the trial and error period of their lives can say they didn’t make huge mistakes. Our life’s journey doesn’t have to be a distant one. It doesn’t have to be one filled with mistakes or misfortunes. It can be one that is guided and protected by the light of Christ within.

The remarkable presence within us is always there. We just have to be trained to hear it. As parents we must train our children to hear the silent voice within. If we don’t our society and its false personalities will. It is important that we rely on the presence of Christ within our own lives that we might awaken this presence in those around us. The enlightened word of God teaches us that if we “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” Proverbs 22:6

Our children depend on us to encourage and love them. What better way to do this but by teaching them to cherish the life within; the Christ within. We must lead by example, not through our own mistakes. This is believing in purpose.

Peace and Love,
