(Just to let you know, this blog may be a little sketchy but that's because for some reason I am having trouble typing this out. Sorry!)
What is your passion? What is your favorite thing to do? Have you ever thought that you have no purpose on this earth? That your just taking up space and are useless? Well, I'll tell you straight up that you are not useless. You have a purpose, actually for than one purpose, and your passion mixes in with your purposes. As matter of fact, you're more important than you think. Each and every single one of you.
1) God put you on this earth. He gave you life, and for more than one reason. For one, to love Him. To be in an intimate relationship with Him. I can't stress it enough that God just wants to be your friend. Your lover. Your husband. Your everything. A lot of people totally forget this, and obey everything God says. Not saying that's bad, but eventually it turns into a master and slave relationship, instead of a friendship that He wants. He wants you to talk to Him, to dance with Him, to be in a relationship where you even have a say in what He does. In the book of Genesis, in chapter 18, we read that Abraham intercedes for Sodom. God decided that He would destroy Sodom because it was so bad, but Abraham said to the Lord in Genesis 18:23-24 "And Abraham came near and said, "would you also destroy the righteous with the wicked? Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would you also destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous that were in it?" We read that Abraham tried to convince God not to destroy Sodom if there were 50 righteous people within the city, and God listened to Abraham and said He would not destroy Sodom if there were 50 righteous within the city. Genesis 18:26 "So the Lord said, "If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes." See. Abraham has that friendship with God that he can even ask God to spare the city if there were fifty righteous within the city. Even then, Abraham still goes lower to where if there were ten righteous God would spare the city. It's sad to see that people forget about this type of relationship with God. Instead, they become more like slaves instead of friends. Not talking to God, not having some alone time with Him, but instead just doing whatever He tells them to do without even asking why just to know.
2) Your other purpose is to also be a light in someones life. Not saying to be someones everything, but to be that light that brings them to an even greater light, which is God. This world is in a crisis right now, always has been and always will. Satan is constantly corrupting people, and fighting against the righteous, and they're people out there that need to realize that God is the only one that can save them. I, for one, was heading down the wrong path, and if it wasn't for my friend Rio constantly inviting me to church, I would'nt be here right now doing this. She is such an amazing person, and God used her to get to me. That was one of her purposes, I know it, and it is for sure not her last. God has so much in store for her, and so much for her to do. All of us, whether we know it or not, are a light in someones life, and in one way or another, we just brought them closer to God. Even right now, as I type out this blog, I pray that it will become a light in someones life out there, and will bring them closer to God. Hebrews 10:24-25 "And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching." Everything I do is for the glory of God, for our heavenly Father.
3) And last but not least, your passion. There is a passion in you. A passion that will minister to people around the world. God put this in you, and He may have even put multiple passions in you. This passion, if allow it to stir up, will do great things around the world, all for the glory of God. God may have put it in you to be a healer, to minister to people who are sick, injured, dying, etc., or even to be an evangelist, where you just want to see everyone around the world know the word of God. My passion is in the ministry of Worship. I just love to see people get moved in worship. When ever I see someone so deeply moved or crying during worship, it makes me feel so happy, and also makes me want to cry. The reason is because whenever I'm in worship, I feel His presence all around me, and I just get rocked, and when someone i see feels the same way, i get even more rocked. I also have always had a thing for music, ever since I could remember. I don't know how to really explain it, it's really hard to, but hopefully you get what I'm saying. If not, just ask God to interpret all of this :). Another example is my friend Zeena. I see her in the future going to far places spreading the word of God and making people smile. I see her as an evangelist. Eden, another friend of mine, I see her in the childrens ministry.
Everyone has a purpose. Never think that you don't have one. If you don't know what it is, dont' be afraid to ask God.
Also remember, God will not always let you know right away. Proverbs 25:2 "It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter."
O Father in Heaven, I pray Lord that this site will be a light to people out there. That people will begin to realize who you are and will begin to turn to you. To run to you. To be in love with you. I thank you so much for life that you have given us, and for the passions inside of every single one of us. I know Lord that we all have a purpose, and that purpose is so important to you, just as much as we are important to you. Everything is for you God, everything for you glory and your name. I love you, we love you. Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In your sons holy name we pray, Amen.
