On Finding One's Purpose

When we look for our purpose, we find that it doesn’t have anything to do with anyone else.

Even though we may have taken care of children, husband, wife, work, colleagues, church projects, PTA, garage sale, fund-raisers, those have nothing to do with our purpose.

Our purpose is from within.

It is part of that deep down essence of identity.

It, not the things we do, is our life.

Not the things we have done.

Not any of the old directions.

Our purpose is an intimate thing revealed only to the one person.

Later on, it may be manifested in a way that is visible to other people.

But first, it is something to be found deeply within.

Listen, and listen again.

It will make its presence known to you.
