Wonder Volume X


Ever wonder what your purpose in this world is? So, what exactly is purpose anyway? Well the very definition of the word is this: the reason for which something exists or is done, made, used etc; determination; resoluteness. It’s meaning in this world can be interpreted in many ways. You can base your existence on what you do for a living, what you do for others, or even what others do for you. We all have a meaning and a purpose. So does it come flying at you with instruction on what, where and when? No. Our life is based on the choices that we make in life that will affect the life of others and ourselves. What happened to just hugging a child that needed something that simple? What happened to giving those around you the benefit of the doubt? Are we now so self involved that we can no longer see past the web we weave to the next person who needs something as effortless as a smile? I challenge those reading to take a page out of Christ’s Word to do something small for someone that you may or may not know today. Base your soul’s light on spreading zeal around to those who are lost in the dark tunnels of life. With every light shining one at a time, we can all make it through. I see allot of darkness in this world through people’s actions and beliefs, their situations, and their decisions. It makes me want to fight harder and longer. Even when I’m battered and bruised. It’s like a Gladiator taking his enemy’s worst and still standing up for the right of mankind…..simply because it’s the right thing to do. Talk about valor and honor. Do something for yourself and others, not for self-gratification, not for tax write off’s, or bragging rights. Do it because it is the right thing. One day we will all realize that the decisions that we are making in this moment right now, are the ones that mold our legacy in the eyes of Jesus Christ. He has the last judgment on our souls. I don’t know about you, but I want to stand in front of my Father and be able to answer yes to all of His questions. Yes, Father, I did help that boy whom was lost and had no one. Yes, Father I did give my last dollar to the homeless man on the corner. Yes, Father I did give what I could to those people who lost it all. Yes, Father I did think of Your Glorious face each time hoping and praying that You were looking down on my deeds with splendor saying “Good job My Child, good job”. I do look for your acceptance in everything I do Lord, as it makes me more like You. Please be with me in all that I am and all of the decisions that I make that are pleasing and bring joy to Your heart. Purpose. It is one ingredient in a mixture of life that will rise with love and holiness to become the body of Christ. May we partake in that and be content with all that we do for others and ourselves.
