Talk about Purpose

I'm willing to wait, God, what can I do to get to know you while I wait?

In life these days, we rarely get to wait on things anymore because we have gotten used to life and things moving fast. Most of us don't have to wait very long for anything anymore. We have all been there, praying to God and asking Him to answer our prayers, which could seem like forever to be answered. Yet sometimes, these unanswered prayers could already be the answer.

Life seems to be difficult to navigate when we don't know our life purpose, and I've been down this road before. I've been searching in and out for this purpose, and I feel like it changes every now and then, or I never have the same passion for the same thing, especially when something drastic changes in my life, and I get out of balance. Sometimes, waiting is harder than the actual work. Maybe you're in this place right now, wandering and wondering where and how I could possibly know my life's purpose. And suddenly it hit me, it's never gonna be just this vague career choice or feeling towards a hobby that's going to be our main purpose in life. I think it's much higher than that. I feel like God rarely reveals to us our purpose in life, and we just have to continue spending time with Him for us to know what our true mission in life is. And then it hit me, it's not about what I can do for people or for myself, but it's about how I approach life with God always in the center of everything. I was reminded that my life needed to be centered on God for me to fully understand the scope of my being and what my true purpose in life is. It's how I move through life, having God in the middle of everything I do. It's making sure I have God in mind with everything I pour out into. It's about glorifying God with everything I do. Because if I make that my priority, anything I do will never be as exhausting compared to just doing things for a worldly purpose. So I guess, I was just pouring this out at the moment, for the reason that I wanted to remind myself anytime I could re-read this, that I should always set my eyes on doing things in this world for God, and rest assured, life will be more wonderful and purposeful.

My life purpose? It's not boiled down to just a few things. But it's mainly about the focus on my relationship with God, and I know everything will just follow.
