"This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one...the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. "(Man and Superman, Epistle Dedicatory)By George Bernard Shaw
Yikes, that hurts. Are we more God focused or us focused? I hate to miss out on the purpose God designed me for because of my own selfish grievances and pursuit of happiness. I studied the Purpose Driven Life book several years ago. I remember thinking how much I focused on trying to make my life the way I wanted it instead of seeking God and what He had designed me for. That can be a struggle. I realized God is always trying to help us. He is for us! I believe our purpose is to worship God for who He is and live for Him with determination. That just means setting our minds to not give up. If we don't make up our minds to live with a purpose we can wander through life aimlessly. You know the old saying "If you aim for nothing you will hit it everytime"
