Everything Starts With God

It has nothing to do with you.

The purpose of his life is exceedingly greater than his personal fulfillment, than his
mental peace, and even that your happiness. He is exceedingly older than his family, than his profession
and that his biggest dreams and ambitions. If you want to know why it was put on this planet,
You have to start with God.

You were born because of His purpose and for His purpose.
The search for the purpose of life has perplexed people for thousands of years.

This is because we usually start at the wrong starting point: ourselves.
We ask ourselves egocentric questions like What do I want to be? What should I do
with my life? What are my goals, my ambitions, my dreams for my future? But focus
in ourselves it will never reveal to us the purpose of our lives. The Bible says,
"God is the one who directs the lives of his creatures, the life of all is in his power."

Contrary to what many popular books, movies and seminars tell you, you will not discover
the meaning of your life if you seek it within yourself. You have probably already tried
that. You did not create yourself, consequently there is no way you can
tell yourself what it was created for! If I gave you an invention that you have never seen, you would not know its purpose, and the invention itself would be unable to tell you. Only its creator or the instruction manual
It could reveal his purpose.

Many people try to use God to achieve their own self-realization, but
that is putting nature backward and destined to fail. You were made for God, not
vice versa, and life is about allowing God to use you for His purposes, not that
you use Him for your purposes. The Bible says, "The obsession with oneself in these matters
It is dead end street; paying attention to God leads us to an open field, to a spacious life
and free. "

There are many books that suggest ways to discover the purpose of life.
All could be classified as "self-help" books because they talk about it from a
egocentric point of view. Self-help books, including Christians, generally
offer the same predictable steps to find the purpose of life: Consider your
dreams Clarify your values. Set some goals. Realize what is good.

Try to achieve
big things. Start! Be disciplined. Trust that you can achieve your goals. Wrap
to others. Never give up.

In effect, these recommendations often produce great success. You can
generally succeed in achieving a goal if you intend to do so. But being successful and fulfilling
The purpose of your life are not the same thing at all!

You can achieve all your goals personal, to have a resounding success according to the criteria of the world, and, even so, not to find the purposes for which God created it. It needs more than self-help advice.

He says, "Self-help is not help at all, self-sacrifice is the way, my way, to discover you.
same, your true self. "

For thousands of years, brilliant philosophers have argued and speculated about the meaning
of the life. Philosophy is an important subject and has its uses, but when it comes to
determine the purpose of life, even the wisest philosophers are only guessing.

God has not left us in the dark to walk with doubts and uncertainty.
He has clearly revealed his five purposes for our lives through the Bible.
The Bible is our Instruction Manual: it explains why we are alive, how it works
life, what to avoid and what to expect from the future. The Bible explains what no self-help book
or philosophy could know.

God was thinking of you very much before you could think of Him. God's purpose for your life precedes your conception. The planning
your purpose before you existed and without your suggestions! You can choose
his career, his spouse, his hobbies and many other parts of his life but
he does not have the choice to decide his purpose.
The purpose of his life fits into a broader cosmic purpose that God has designed
for the rest of eternity.
