Purposed by His Love – by Cresi Heslop
And so 2015 is busily underway. By now most of us have figured out where our new year’s resolutions, goals, new habits, and all those noble things fit into and on top of the daily “grind” of life. For some perhaps easily and seamlessly, but I guess for most, like myself, with much pain and effort!
Amidst all of this I want to remind myself once again of my roots, my grounding and my purpose. I want to revive myself when I need strength for my daily challenges in this: “This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life”. – John 3:16
These words inspire me to keep on seeking, keep on pushing, keep on working towards my purpose.
Remember “You had a purpose before anyone had an opinion”. – Galatians 1:15-16
So I urge you to be mindful of your purpose, whether it be in sports, academics, business, parenting, career, coaching or whatever it might be, as you push on with determination into the days ahead of 2015.
