"For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge, and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverence, godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins."
-2 Peter 1:5-9
God placed each and every one of us on this planet to fulfill a purpose. Maybe your purpose is to
preach to 2 million people in a service. Maybe its to greet people at the door of that service.
Maybe its to clean the toilets for the people of that service. Maybe its to repair the vehicles so
that the people can drive to that service. Maybe its to serve the food after that service is over.

Whatever your destiny is, you have to pursue it. And if you don't know what your destiny is,
then keep following the Word of God until your destiny is manifested. You won't ever truly know
if you don't fulfillthe purpose that all of us were sent here to do; serve God and make him known.
If you aren't fulfilling thatpurpose, then how can you truly get a grasp on your true individual destiny?

I'm at a point in my life now that I have no idea what I'm to do with it. I serve the Lord faithfully
at my church. I love serving at church. If the purpose of my life for the rest of my life is to continue
doing what I am doing currently, I would be happy. Because in serving my pastors and elders,
I am serving the Lord. And when I am serving the Lord, I am fulfilling my destiny. Whether I know
it or not, I am fulfilling my destinyby being a blessing to those around me, and through doing so,
my own personal destiny will be revealed.

I just want to encourage you, dear reader, to serve God with your whole heart. Not 3/4 of it,
ALL of it. If you want ALL that God has for you, then give Him ALL of your life. And by doing this,
your true destinyshall be revealed.

Patience is a hard thing to master, but you'll have to be to master it....
