Okay on a serious note…
I’ve got this constant curiosity about life and “is this all there is?” Ever been here?? It’s weird because I am not bored at all. I never am because I am too focused on my goals and bettering myself daily, but the thought always creeps in… Honestly, there’s so much to this life. I am really tapping into new things and I am truly doing way more than I ever thought possible to be doing at the same time. I am making all of my dreams come true and following my heart with every decision I make and every word I say. I am stepping confidently and boldly into the call that God has for my life and I can see it so clearly what I’m supposed to do with my life.
Finally my purpose is revealing right before my very eyes. It is such an exhilarating feeling. How lucky am I to know exactly what I’m supposed to do with my life – the mission and call on my life to bring Glory to God? My life feels like such a dream and I have been blessed in many ways. I’ve never felt more motivated in my whole life than I do right now. Wow. I am alive. I am living.
How do you keep the wheels spinning in that beautiful mind of yours and find the call on your life?? Here are some tips:
1.
Seek the Kingdom of God and pray every single day. Listen and be still in the waiting. Be patient and faithful. Dedicate a time that you are going to be in the presence of God and be consistent. This is an absolute must in order to grow in your faith and elevate your spiritual maturity. Once you start, don’t stop because God desires a personal relationship with you. Yes, you!
2.
Try new things. When’s the last time you did something for the first time? Do something new today. Ideally something that you’re passionate about as this may also reveal your purpose and calling. Don’t just try something once if it doesn’t go the way you wanted it to, but you really enjoyed it. Try again and see how it goes the next time around. Good things take time.
3.
Always stay busy. Keep that mind and body busy. Plan things – go to events with your friends, focus on loving people harder, spend time alone doing something you’re passionate about. Play a game that’s good for your mind. Do something fulfilling for your heart, body, mind, and soul.
I am always in search of things that bring my soul the most joy and fill me up with a high level of satisfaction. Anything that brings negativity or bad vibes, I run the other way and don’t look back. The complete opposite happens when we feel the presence of God or get a glimpse of God’s goodness even just for 1 second. We run as fast as we can towards Him because we simply just can’t get enough. Those are the feelings I am after. If you feel the presence of God and you’re not running towards Him you better check yourself before you wreck yourself.
4.
Learn something new every day. I try to learn a new word every day to expand my vocabulary because I love words and words matter. It’s funny when you learn a new word you start to hear it more and more. Whatta crazy concept. LOL. Use your words to lift people up and speak life into them because everyone needs encouragement.
5.
Write down your goals. Where do you want to be a year from now? What do you want to do differently tomorrow that you didn’t do today? What emotional state do you want to be in and what emotions do you want to feel the most? Small wins toward your goal(s) add up to big wins! Write every goal down as external motivation for internal greatness.
6.
Look at your goals daily. Keep a crystal clear vision in your mind of where you want to be. Keep improving and moving forward to reach your goals and desired emotions to help fulfill your purpose and understand your calling.
7.
Take time for yourself and your thoughts. Your mental health and well being are so important! Don’t neglect yourself. You have to be in alignment with yourself before being able to fulfill you purpose and impact others. More self love boys and girls.
8.
Understand what stage in life you are. Not where you want to be?? Do something to elevate yourself to the next level. Don’t complain about where you are in life. Make a change for you to be where you want to be if that can be controlled. Motivate yourself and pray often.
Continue seeking and listening for Gods voice. Pay attention to your dreams and thoughts. What is God asking you to do? God’s timing is perfect all we have to do is say yes to Him. God will often appear to me in a dream, and when that happens I am completely shook. Wow, God really showed up in my dreams? I remember them all so vividly. It is truly amazing. Does God appear to you in your dreams? Remember them! What is He trying to tell you, and will you be obedient to what He asks you to do?
9.
Spread your happiness because that’s contagious. We all need happiness in our lives. Sprinkle it everywhere you go. Every encounter you have with someone can change their life forever. One moment in the presence of God can change your life forever or someone else’s life forever. The presence of God is on you, use it to help other people come to know and love Him. Remember we are supposed to strive to be like Jesus in every move we make and every word we say Think about what Jesus would do in certain situations and respond accordingly. Pay attention to your energy and vibe. Always smile at strangers. You never know what battles people are facing. Be a light!
10.
Let people know when you’re thinking of them. This will go a really long ways. I wish more people in my life did this for me… makes my heart happy to know when I’m on people’s mind or something reminds people of me. This speaks volumes to me. Like wow, I actually matter to you? That’s so awesome. Do something for the people you love to show them you love them. Do something for the people you don’t know also as they may not experience the feeling of love in their personal life. A little bit of love goes a long long way.
Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable
I cannot say this enough! Let your purpose fuel your passion. If you want to change the world you must share your knowledge and experience. Don’t forget to use your Spiritual Gifts because those are going to help you excel in reaching more people for the greater good and bring God glory. Hallelujah!
What are Spiritual Gifts? We all have them. Think of something you’re really good at or a characteristic that someone has pointed out in you that you shine in. Yes, that’s a Spiritual Gift. We are all gifted. If you find you excel at administrative tasks and organization, God has gifted you with the gift of Administration. If you find you are always standing in the gap for other people, God has gifted you with the gift of Intercession.
How can you be sure that your Spiritual Gifts are from God? Seek Him and spend time with Him. Talk to Him, pray about your Spiritual Gifts. Ask for the Lord to give you an opportunity to see your Spiritual Gift in action. Ask for God to show you a sign proving that your gifts are indeed your gifts. Sometimes doubt creeps in, but when it is from the Lord you will surely know and believe before you ever see it.

Be willing to go out of your comfort zones to experience all that life has to offer and what God is calling you to do. I have said it before and I’ll say it again. Get comfortable being uncomfortable because God has a funny way of taking us out of our comfort zones to further the Kingdom and carry out our purpose on this earth. Once you have the call and fully understand your purpose, say “yes I will.”
Trust God fully with everything.
