Passion and Purpose

I don’t have a passion. I don’t have a purpose.

I have read The Purpose Drive Life, and don’t remember anything I read (it’s been a few years). For so long, I have put a focus on the future and what is to come that I fear I am missing the here and now. But I still don’t know what to do with the now.

Is it apathy? Is it laziness? What am I supposed to be doing beyond the day to day?

I’m frustrated.

I'm losing sleep.

  2. You sound like me a last week!
    For me, I realized everything is off kilter b/c my relationship with the Lord was lacking....
    Ask for God to reveal what it is to your heart... he did for me!

  3. Bekah, I think that often times our passions or our purpose are right in front of us. Especially if we are living in God's will. We just need to change the way we're looking at our current situation.

    I think that you are an amazing wife - loving, supportive, helpful - and that you are an amazing and gifted leader. You've done a great job leading our group these past few weeks.

    Those two roles alone were given to you by God. You've said that you've felt a prompting to be a better encourager. Who has God put under your care that you can encourage?

    I've learned that the work God gave me in my home, was the very thing he wanted to turn in to my purpose. But there were changes I had to make in order to invest in my home. God has since continued to bless that investment.

    I'll be praying for you. Love you!
