LIVE A LIFE OF PURPOSE

For me, living a life of purpose means adding more to my life – not more stuff; not more stress … but more meaning; more value – more purpose! I intend to set and complete more goals – goals with purpose!! Sometimes days and even weeks pass and I feel exhausted – I am chasing and rushing – BUT – I have not achieved real purpose – I believe that not everyday needs to be filled with activity and excitement and commitment of my time to specific goals, but I need to focus my energies on more important stuff – like making sure that my boys are happy and healthy; making more time for my family; nurturing special friendships; getting my mind and my home in order; creating – LIVING LIFE PURPOSEFULLY …

DO IT ON PURPOSE

Sometimes, just getting through the day is a mammoth task for me – I take on the woes of the world and it weighs me down – I find I can’t cope – I figure that if I have more purpose in my day, I won’t have the time to take on more emotionally and so I will cope better! It sounds pretty simple but I know this will be hard for me! I need to disassociate without cutting myself off from the special people around me …

WHAT IS MY PURPOSE?

This requires commitment and study and time – time given to my Father in Heaven; study of His Scriptures; commitment to keeping His Commandments. It’s simple really and I know what to do – I just have to DO IT!!

I am a WOMAN of PURPOSE – I am a wife, mother, daughter, friend and Child of God!!
