Father's Love Letter

Isn't it awesome to know how much God loves and cherishes us? This is a great narration of God's love for mankind based on the scriptures. It reminds me of the scripture that says that God is not willing that anyone perish, but that all will come to repentance. Not only does God love us, but he also has a plan for each our lives. Jeremiah 29:11 says that they are plans to do us good and to give us hope. If you have not accepted Christ into your life, I invite you to do it today? If you have already accepted Jesus as your Lord and savior then ask him to reveal his purpose and plans for your life. We're waiting to see what great things God will do in and through you! God bless you.

Finding Your Life's Purpose

Purpose Talk

Good morning all:


It's time for PURPOSE TALK


Find your purpose in life and humbly submit to it as you worship God and serve your fellow man. 






"Place Your Life Before God"  


God has created each of us different.  We are all unique with different abilities.  We should concentrate on doing our part and doing it well.  It is not a good thing to compare yourself to others and what they are doing.  We should keep our mind focused on the eternal things of God and never lose sight of the fact that we are only passing through this land and are on our way to our eternal home.  So, we should make sure that our life counts by discovering our purpose so that we can do what God has created us to do.  The word of God teaches us how to live and how to respond to God and also how to respond to mankind.  We should make it our aim to be obedient to the Lord and to do all that he commands us to do.  That is the Purpose of Life.  


Romans 12 from the Message Bible sums it up pretty well:  

Romans 12

   1 -2 So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.
   3I'm speaking to you out of deep gratitude for all that God has given me, and especially as I have responsibilities in relation to you. Living then, as every one of you does, in pure grace, it's important that you not misinterpret yourselves as people who are bringing this goodness to God. No, God brings it all to you. The only accurate way to understand ourselves is by what God is and by what he does for us, not by what we are and what we do for him.
   4 -6In this way we are like the various parts of a human body. Each part gets its meaning from the body as a whole, not the other way around. The body we're talking about is Christ's body of chosen people. Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body. But as a chopped-off finger or cut-off toe we wouldn't amount to much, would we? So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christ's body, let's just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other, or trying to be something we aren't.
   6 -8If you preach, just preach God's Message, nothing else; if you help, just help, don't take over; if you teach, stick to your teaching; if you give encouraging guidance, be careful that you don't get bossy; if you're put in charge, don't manipulate; if you're called to give aid to people in distress, keep your eyes open and be quick to respond; if you work with the disadvantaged, don't let yourself get irritated with them or depressed by them. Keep a smile on your face.
   9 -10Love from the center of who you are; don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle.
   11 -13Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder. Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality.

   14 -16Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. Laugh with your happy friends when they're happy; share tears when they're down. Get along with each other; don't be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody.
   17 -19Don't hit back; discover beauty in everyone. If you've got it in you, get along with everybody. Don't insist on getting even; that's not for you to do. "I'll do the judging," says God. "I'll take care of it."
 20-21 Our Scriptures tell us that if you see your enemy hungry, go buy that person lunch, or if he's thirsty, get him a drink. Your generosity will surprise him with goodness. Don't let evil get the best of you; get the best of evil by doing good.
