7 PRINCIPLES OF PURPOSE Part 2

      7 PRINCIPLES OF PURPOSE Part 2

      2.  EVERYTHING IN LIFE HAS A PURPOSE

You may be ignorant of God’s purpose, but it does not negate the purpose. Every creature of God has a purpose. Even plants and animals exist for a purpose. Plants and animals balance themselves in the ecosystem. They need one another. The ozone layer has a purpose.

Your life did not just happen. Don’t feel worthless. You are a person of value. There are illegitimate circumstances, but there are no illegitimate children. You are not just here marking times.

You were not brought into this world for your parents; you are brought for God’s purpose. As parents, don’t force your children to follow your preferences and sentiments. Don’t make your children fulfill your purpose. Let them fulfill God’s purpose for them.

Col 1:16 MSG

    For everything, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible, rank after rank after rank of angels--everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him. 

     3. NOT EVERY PURPOSE IS KNOWN

Don’t just grow up to live in stereotypes. Don’t just stumble into circumstances and situations. During Jonah’s trip, they did not know the purpose of the storm. When purpose is not known, it is dangerous

Unknown purpose creates Danger, Difficulty and waste of time.

When you are outside of purpose, things are hard. Difficulty sets in.It is hard to kick against the pricks. Outside of purpose, there is stagnation. A good example is Jonah.

To be continued.
