YOUR PURPOSE...FIND IT!

It is really easy to get caught in the life of chasing the wind. You spend a whole day chasing vain things…you think you are busy but before you know it; you are totally drained and completely lost in the endless cycle of the rat race.
I heard it in Church and it is beginning to make sense to me…. The devil burdens humans with 3 things:

- The Lust of the Eyes

- The Lust of the Flesh

- The Pride of Life.

These 3 things are the basis of the conflicts and emptiness we experience in the world today. Most people become pre-occupied with achieving a life for only themselves. It is always about them. You really have to be careful not to become preoccupied with achieving for yourself only…It is not going to always be about you. Suddenly, you loose yourself in this pursuit of material, your life is overtaken with anxiousness…. You become caught in the hurrying that the world is leaving you behind, you think you are so slow, you are making no progress….you never count your blessing because you don’t see the need to.
You must discover the essential things in life, what is really important in the very end. If you can only discover that, your life will automatically adjust. People are in so much hurry and it leaves me wondering, where we are all hurrying to?
To achieve feats in life is good but in all that never loose sight of what really matters. Don’t let the things around you and other people’s definition of what life really means fool you…it is important that you know what you want.
Life is not always about how much material you have…it has its prestige but there is so much more to life. To continually live this principle that you are not so much for the material is a hard feat to achieve; it is a continuous fight. This is the one thing that drives the world…inside it, you have the 3 things that the devil contro9l the world; the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh, the pride of life. It is an order that propels people, they do not know when to stop the chase, and they are forever chasing materials. People who have won their battle with material madness will tell you how much relieve they are experiencing. They have gotten over themselves, they live offence-free life and there is so much space in their lives to reach out to others. They are at peace with themselves, happy in their own skin as they live everyday life getting better.
After all has been said and done…..when the die is cast….what will really matter? Ask yourself this one question….am certain, it will help you make better choices!
