It's a lovely day, Ladies,
Welcome to my blog. Life is beautiful, life is attractive, life is good and life is a gift from the Almighty, the unseen God to all the living, to humanity, to animals, birds, insects and trees. To every living things, seen and unseen.
QUESTION TWO
Right now in your life, what feels like your main reason for living?
Thank you also @ladiesofhive for this week's prompt contest #285.
My own main reasons or purposes for living are in subsections. One, finding my purpose in God and in his word. I have come to understand that God has allowed me to be alive to serve him as a child of God.
I'm not perfect, but consciously finding myself at trying to obey or obeying God, being conscious that he watches me to know my actions, inactions and motives. Yet, speaking, teaching me, correcting me or even scolding me on daily basis is my number one purpose and joy for living now and in the hope for the future.
I'm also awe that he watches over me and all that concerns me and he has been making ways of escaping dangers of life seen and unseen for me and all that pertains to me, is one among many purposes I'm living for today.
Voluntary soul winning has emanieted from the joy I have that God loves me and I'm obeying his word, it is a joy and a serious passion, a purpose for living now and in the future.
Another passion I have which is among the purposes for my living is having a heart of gratitude to God for where I am to day, because I know clearly where I am coming from in life generally. His mercies has changed my life totally, it's exciting and a motivation for me to keep living.
Knowing that I have a positive future in God has given me a great chance to pursue my personal growth, learning everyday to achieve goals and my purpose for being alive. Becoming what I was admiring to be some years back is my backbone for living and it's among the amazing reasons why I'm happy to be alive.
Life is full of choices, it will respond to you according to the choices you make daily, therefore, choose right so you can fulfill your destiny, your purpose and the abilities God has planted in you will both be seen, benefit you, benefit the entire universe and God will be happy to boast of whom you finally became at the end of times
Life didn't just started existing, it's owned by someone, the unseen God of Heaven and the earth.
He is the all wise God and has given the humans wisdom and those abilities that he is made up of. You can remember that in the beginning of life, he called out the Trinity....,
"Come, let us make man in our own image and in our own likeness" for this reason, we are like God.
Everything under the earth has seasons and purposes for existence. Therefore, we all have purposes, talents, abilities, reasons why we are living and are still alive till date. Mind you, there's a reconning by the owner of our lives of all we do and are doing daily.
I would also love to begin by reminding us about a senerio in the Bible;
The parable of the Talents from the scriptures, Mathew 25v14-30
It was an illustration of the master and his servants. He was about traveling for a long journey and wanted his servants to be useful, not to be idle but to make profits in life, he gave them **Talents by his own discretion, according to each person's abilities in life. He encouraged them to trade with as many or even one talent to make some profits for him and for themselves before he returns.
Some went into action, trading with their given talents and made huge profits but one among them went and dug the ground and buried his own, he never was mindful of it and never tried buying or selling with it.
The master was very bitter as he came back. Others were returning with their capitals and profits while the idle servant only came before his master with only the very capital given to him which is himself, we are Gods capitals for trade on the earth. Nothing was added to it. The master was completely angry with him, never showed any other mercy and no other alternatives than casting him into the dungeon of everlasting suffering.
This Biblical illustrations and description is about life and purposes, talents, skills, ability of what and how we can live a purposeful and profitable lives here on the earth.
Nobody was created empty, you are to find your purpose and begin to work on it or on them to the limelight and then fulfill it because the giver is recording our activities and how we have been using what he gave to us which is why we are still alive.
God is patiently waiting for us to align with his purpose for us which is why we are still alive, the earlier we find it and align, the better for us to live even longer. We are not the sole owner of our lives, God is.
He has laid down guidelines and principles on how to live life to become fruitful and fulfilling for each and everyone of us. Because if everyone in this world has refused to find their purposes and fulfilling them, this world would have been a dull, annoying and an uninteresting place, all we see and enjoy in this life comes from people's purposes and talents, skills and abilities to be alive.
They found them and are making use of them, we all are enjoying, so do not be that wicked servant that buried his own talent, his master was never happy with him.... There are days for recorning with God, the owner of this vineyard, ....The world in which we live in.
I especially thank you immensely, @merit.ahama. For this deeply well thought questions. These two questions are points of personal motivations to think about oneself on a personal level.
Thank you everyone, for staying with me, have a great day.
