Stuff, stuff, and more stuff. Our daily grind coupled with our internal struggles have seemingly culminated into an amalgamation of superfluous living void of tangible results linked to purpose. Are you on track? Can you fruit from your labor. Yes, granted, you are a Child of The Most High God but would He be pleased with your progress if He was asked? Again, are you on track or could you be doing more? A child, loved by our congregation, recently passed and came as a shock to us all. I had to ask myself these questions. I understand the fact that as believers this is not our home. We are aliens to this earth and destined to live in Heaven. As pilgrims on this journey, we build The Kingdom of Heaven here on earth but it almost appears as though we've begun walking around as if we've got forever to do His will while aware here.

What talents do you possess? What problems are you here to solve? What drives you up the wall and pushes you to get involved? They may all be attached to your call. You must ask yourself these questions and don't spend a lifetime wasting time. Finding the answers early and making your requests and intentions known to God can lead to unimaginable levels of personal fulfillment. God is no respecter of person and his laws are immutable.
