HOW TO FIND THE PURPOSE IN YOUR LIFE
Or...Why did he leave me here with all these crazy people?
Matthew 19:16-30
The Rich Young Ruler
We try to give God our needs.
We try to do God's work.
We try to be God.
How about you let him do his work?
The Pleasure Principle: "The instinctual seeking of pleasure and avoiding of pain in order to satisfy biological and psychological needs." - Sigmund Freud
The true man wants two things, danger and play. For that reason he wants woman, as the most dangerous plaything." - Fred Niechzsche
"Man desires meaning, and distracts himself with pleasure or risk when empty." - Victor Frankl
It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy the spirit, a relationship, a marriage.
Follow Me.
NOT
DO it like Me.
May you discover your inner child.
May you accept your role in the redemptive narrative.
May you enjoy the meaning in every moment you have to reject comfort and release purpose.
May you put yourself aside, and find yourself in knowing God.
May you rediscover the wonder that is you.
