Divine Purpose

A very dear friend of mine told me of an author who suggested that we "live our vocation as a vacation." This concept fit perfectly with commandment number seven, so I thought I would share that today.


7. Find and live your passion and purpose
  • We have totally given “work” a bad name. It was never intended for work to be hard and laborious.
  • Your purpose should be fun and exciting.
  • It is a gift you give to the world.
  • You know it is your purpose, if you would do it even if you did not get paid.
  • There is something inside of each of us that will give us this joy and bring passion to our lives.

  1. Love it. Love it. Love it! I love this post for two reasons. First, when I inserted what I know my purpose to be in the text, it fit perfectly. I have several areas of competency (at least in my opinion) but the one that is my true passion bubbled to the top when I read this. The bullet about doing it even if I did not get paid separated my real purpose from my other talents. Second, my purpose IS to help others find and pursue their purpose so this hit home even more for me. And, I would dare add that when we are living our passion, it comes naturally. Sharing it is almost second nature. Thank you for this post.
