Good Time For Our Purpose

Holiday season  beginning it is
really  a good time to do our 
purpose. 

Here people  will be out shopping
as well  as those who prefer to
do online too. Always a day to
find sales. I  will certainly see
look to find a deal or two on
clothing.

The crowds will be large so
me it is a good time to find 
others to talk to. I  will say
at least hello and encourage 
others. I  am  told I have a
nice smile so I  use that to.  
We should use whatever 
we have to make another
person  a better day.

We never know using our
purpose  we may change
another one's  life forever.
We may never know who
they may be.

Enjoy your day whether 
your on holiday or you
are working.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Successful Purpose

It isn't  easy  to do in the state of the
world  however we need to do everything 
we can to have successful  purpose.

We all have the ingredients to have
success in this life and the purpose 
we are given.

Why I  says this is were created  by 
God for a purpose  and he gave us
the gifts and talents to do so. In 
another manner of speaking we 
have the tools.

It comes down to the fact we have 
to have the faith and belief to do it.
Satan will make every  effort  to get 
in the way for us to do so. He knows
us better than we know ourselves.
He will  intice us to do other things
so we won't  do what we are capable
of. Now we have to resist him and
follow God to do every purpose for
us. Amen! ❤️❤️❤️❤️


Thanksgiving

Here in the United States  the 4th
Thursday  of November  is a national 
holiday Thanksgiving . It has been
celebrated even before became a
nation.

The tradition is to have turkey, mash
potatoes, gravey, stuffing or dressing, 
and sweet  potatoes.  For dessert 
pumpkin pie with whip cream is
popular or apple pie or other pies.

Those who don't  have  turkey often
have ham as a substitute. I  am  sure 
every  family has their tradition.

The importance though is to spend
time with family or friends and be
thankful for our blessings.

During the day there is football game
on TV or a basketball game. A good 
time to enjoy before dinner.

I am sure many cities have  traditions
as well. In my town they have the Turkey 
Trot which is a 5k run or walk if you
prefer in the morning. Mostly  they go
in pairs or the whole family goes. They
are each given a number so to know
how many are participating.They often 
stop at one of the coffee shops after
they finish. The trot takes around the
waterfront  so the street is blocked off
during the race. 

For many it is the favorite  holiday of
the year. People travel for a distance 
to visit  family. Many take off Friday
as well  which is the busiest day of
shopping  for the holidays. Often
families will go get a Christmas  Tree 
too.

Besides fun it still comes down to
being thankful and something we
should do all year long. So Happy
Thanksgiving  everyone!  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

A Smaller World

Though the world  is  large and we may
live thousands of miles  apart even in
the same  country technology makes it 
seem smaller.

I live on the west  coast and New York 
is more then five hours to fly too. The 
cites along the east coast  you can go to 
most within five hours driving.

I can drive to Portland  Oregon in two
hours and forty minutes however 
Spokane on the east side of Washington 
takes almost five hours from my place 
to drive. The same goes for Eugene 
Oregon. So I  could  be  in California 
in one day driving.

We can video chat or a zoom  meeting 
within the world  for it to seem smaller.
On Tuesday  at the gym I said hello to
someone who is from Japan and another
one from Sweden. I  had a short chat
with a couple  I believe from Eastern 
Europe and a longer one with a young
woman from Brazil. I went to Starbucks 
after and there a couple young men
talking and I  am  sure  they were speaking 
Russian.  Not a big surprise  since we do
have a good population of Russians in 
the area though not in my town. 

This does make the world feel smaller 
doesn't  it. Gives us even for a purpose 
to share with one another. To learn 
different  cultures. The young woman 
from Brazil says her town there are
those speak German  as well as 
Portuguese. Many Germans have
migrated  there. I  learned something 
new for sure.

May you have a wonderful day and be
blessed with  who you meet.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Beyond the Normal

Some people do what is expected 
or they are comfortable with.

A good thing is to get out of the
normal  sometimes.  This can
make life more exciting  if the
normal isn't  doing so.

Some people  leave a relationship 
since boredom  sets in or they 
feel that they are taken foregranted
or no longer being listen to. In
some cases it can be selfishness.

It is important  to  get help if you
are in any of those situations.  
It is not like you have to go to a
professional  however a friend 
or mentor would be a good one 
to talk too. 

Before things get out of hand
speak it out can help and even
be angry. Holding  things in is
not good. Don't  say anything
that you can't  back. In fact
apologizing at the beginning 
by saying I  am  sorry however 
I  have to get something  off
my chest. 

I see at the gym I go to where
there are these big balls people 
throw down. This could be an
idea to  release any frustration. 

May you have peace with those
you are with today. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Having Several Purposes In Life

Most of us have more than one
purpose  in life  we have several.  
There is a possibility  these could 
be an offshoot of our main purpose. 

Most people  have a family with
a spouse and children too. They
have job that is a purpose  that's 
main objective  is to care of the 
family.

A couple  share in the purpose 
whether they have children yet
or not. At some point the children 
have friends so you have activities 
with them and their families. This
goes with your siblings as well.

In any group  you are a participant 
at least. This makes important part
of your purpose.  You could be a
leader, teacher, coach or mentor.
You may spend several hours a
week doing this besides caring
for your spouse and children. 

Since there isn't  enough hours
sometimes  things like text 
messaging is a good way to
keep in touch so don't have to
need as much in person contact 
though it is important  too.

May you be blessed this week 
and the joy of your purposes. 
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Going Further

As we are heading into Thanksgiving
in United States it is so important
to be thankful.

It isn't always easy when circumstances 
just doesn'tgo our way. In fact we can 
be very upset.

The key is to go further. There
are always those who are worse
off than us. This is where going
further sets in our minds. 

Help out those who are less
fortunate than us. There is
always someone who is lower 
than us.

This helps  us get away from
complaining. It is normal to
feel that way. When we were 
children when our siblings had
something we didn't or friends
as well.

Our attitude should be I am going
further than others. I am encouraging
others even if I have to sacrifice
something. 

This week be thankful even when
it hurts. We actually will feel better
though we might not feel that way 
right now.   ♥♥♥♥

Interesting People

I always enjoy meeting new people
wherever I am at. 

I recommend even if you are a quiet
person to say hello to someone in
line at coffee shop. It isn't like you
have to spend a lot of time at it.

You may find you have something
they need. Ask a question like are
they working today or come from
the gym. 

The people you may never see again
or you have a new friend if they are
there frequently or once in a while.

I have a tendency to speak with several
people sometimes however it can be
just one.  It may take time to get used
to speak to a stranger however I find
it worthwhile. 

I can tell them I am a writer or a
local missionary if they ask.  I try
to have them to speak more. You
can change the subject depending 
how much time is available. 

Have a great weekend and enjoy 
those who you are with.  ♥♥♥♥

Giving Our Gifts

Now that we are close to the holidays 
and Cristmas we naturally buy and give 
gifts away. 

In this manner  we should give our
spiritual  gifts  away to those who 
need them.

We all can give and receive  them.
We will should be willing parties to
so. 

Think about our gifts and those we
can give to just like the natural gifts.
We should do all year around however
this is a time to start if we haven't  
done so often before.

May you have a great holiday and 
Christmas season. Give much love
and joy away.   ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Power Outages Happen

It is so important  to  have power 
especially in the western World. 

In Wester Washington  we get  
some outages this time of the
year. This is included with rain.

Fortunately  Tuesday and  Wednesday 
in tge area I live we didn't  have  to
deal with power outage. It happened 
east then north and south of me.

We are a bit protected along with
having power being underground. 
We get outage is if a major transformer
goes. About a half million people did
go without power which is alot.

We are depended on God by giving
us power as well.  It can be supernatural 
if we need it to change  other peoples 
lives.  This is where faith comes in.

We do have the purpose  of supernatural 
gives us  when the opportunity arises.
We don't  usually  think much about it.
We can use supernatural  power everyday 
at the right time.  

Be available  and let your eyes be open.

Raising Up the Next Generation

In the state of the world is in
it is so important  to  raise up
a generation  that stand firm
and not fall to what the world  
is giving.

The world is giving the opposite
of what each young person even
though it is enticing. What we see
is success might not be at all.

We continue  to  walk on the solid 
road and it is easy to go on a poor
road. 

The job with the younger generation 
is becoming tougher for the parents
to do it alone. In fact the young people 
are being enticed by others to follow
them. 

I recommend  parents to find other
people to help your children out.
They could be friends of yours who
have your values to and invite your
parents to come too and other
grandparents  of friends. 

May your day be good and know
your purpose  is  never done
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being Faithful

It is so important  for us to be faithful 
to those we mentor  or disciple as long
as we can or they need us to be.

A lot depends  on the person.  How much
they mature overtime.

In the age of the phone and technology 
we can share  others real quickly  even
we are not together in person. 

It is still  important  to  spend some time 
face to face with other people, however
phones allow to video chat or text message 
when not talking the old fashion way. 

This allows us to be available  to  anyone
anytime. This is where being faithful comes 
in. We know those we mentor or disciple 
when they are mature they can help us as
well that is the key.

We hope they are mentoring  others too.
I know a gentleman  for many years
who has discipled many young men 
on the campus of Pacific! Lutheran 
University  where several have become
pastors and others having success 
in discipline. This doesn't  count the
multiple  students he had as elementary 
teacher.  He has been retired from teacher
for a while though never stopped discipline.

It doesn't  matter the profession you are
in there are those who can be helped by
you whether it has to do in the are of
expertise  or someother  area.

Those who continue to mentor or
discipling we thank you for doing
so. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Being Shaken Up

Sometimes  we end our life  shaken
up to make it even better.

This could happen  in  different ways.

Positive way would be a blessing 
coming into our life.

Another would be a tragedy that
might take time to get over however
makes us stronger  over time.

Helping others who are going through 
a difficult  time  can help us out too.

We can only know we are shaken 
up how much we can take. 

May you be blessed and be a blessing 
today. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Drawing In With Others

It I so important  we spend time with
others. . We  must be drawn  in a
small community  of people. 

I know some people  have trouble 
by withdrawing at times. This is
when others are important  the
most.

This doesn't  mean  that we have 
to spend lots of hours with others,
however,  talking in some form of
communication is good. 

For  some it is important  to have
communication everyday.  Our
society  makes life so busy it
is hard to do so. With what we
have with phones we don't have
to speak with our voice.  

This means we can message an
individual or a group saying I am
doing well  and this is what has
happened or in reverse I am not
doing well.  They may respond 
quickly  or after a little while. You
can leave a voice mail or a text
message.  

There are times we all need to get
away for a day or a few hours. You
can let others know the same thing.
You are out of the office or whatever 
way to say it. If you can tell them
your whereabouts that would be
good to just in case of an accident 
and you can't respond then.

Have a great day  and may life be
good for you. Keep  your family and
friends close.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

A Blessing

We.can be a blessing  in  several 
different  ways.

We can exhort people  with words.
We can bring food or clothing
We sing with or without  instruments. 
A song or a hym.
We can ask them their favorite song.

In our minds we can ask ourselves 
how we would  like to be blessed.
We could do the  same or something 
similar. 
Most of all being there and be a good 
listener. Amen!   ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Injustice

We live in a world  where  there is
a lot of injustice.  There are likely 
many  feel injustice by being who
they are.

God created us for a purpose  in our
original design.  Unfortunately  we 
are not told by our parents, family,
friends and teachers. 

Here in United States  we are still
in a free country  though it doesn't 
always  feel that way. Even in a
free country  we can meet  injustice.
Many times that has to do with the
color of our skin,  our background 
or physical defiencies. We may not
fit into what others see or expect. 

Injustice can happen by us being in
the wrong place at the wrong time.
We could be arrested by misunder-
standing  or we look like someone  
else. Also for our religious  beliefs. 

This doesn't  even meet with injustice 
by living in a country  that doesn't 
believe in people's rights. Those who
don't  have injustice in these countries 
for the most part were not born in
the right. There are those who do
overcome this type of injustice.

In the end the injustice  we meet that
we had no control over we can overcome
and  your purpose  might be exactly to
do so. In the Old Testament there is a book
called Esther. It was about a young woman
who became a queen though she was
Jewish.  There was a man who wanted 
to get rid of every Jewish  person where
he lived. He tried all he could by going 
to the King. In the end his life ended by
being caught in the presence of Esther.
She was created for just for that time.
The same could go for you as well.  You
might be right there to help  the injustices
that are around you everyday.

I pray  that you know the exactly the reason 
you are here and everything  becomes plain.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Knowing How Faith Works

A good question  is  how  faith works. 
A lot  of  people  don't think they have
a lot of faith or none at all.

Faith is believing  in  what you don't 
see. So whether you have a lot of
faith or little  you do have it.

Jesus  Christ  said  to faith like a
mustard seed. Well a must seed 
is small. So any measurable amount
you have.

Did you know when going to work
or wherever  you  go  today you
have no idea how everything will
work out. That is faith going
despite what you don't know.

I have faith that I  am  going to the
gym today and have a good workout. 
I may see friends or meet new people.
There is a chance I may not even
make it to the gym. My car might 
not start or there is an accident on
the way. I could even get sick and
turn around go home.

Every time you sit down the chair
could be broken  however you have
faith that it is safe. Eating breakfast 
that everything  will go well. These 
are things you regularly do and faith
is working since your believing in
what you don't  see. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Rise Above The Disappointment

We all go through disappointments.
The key is to overcome. 

I know it isn't easy. I have been
in this place quite a few times
myself.  Encouraging you helps 
me as well. 

First thing is to let God know that
you are upset with being disappointed.
He wants you to be honest with him.
I know by experience it It's easy to
hide our feelings. 

You need to be more assured let
someone close to you know your
disappointment. If someone has
made you disappointed it is a good
idea to let them know. They might
not even know and how they react 
can make you feel good. Don't
make them feel guilty though. 

Your purpose may include sharing
disappointment with others too.
We may not even realize how we
feel this way.  It could have happened
years ago. We will feel so much better.

If you write a journal or want to start
one list each time you become
disappointed. Also list when you
feel good about yourself. Putting
our feelings on paper is good.
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Stand Pat or Not

The question  is  do we stand pat
or not. The answer is no.

We need to continue  on our  way
to grow in our life purpose. 

It is  easy  to  stay where we are
comfortable  however  there are
greater days ahead. 

Just think of those in the United 
States in the 1800s who decided 
to go out west and not stay where
it was easy and comfortable. 

Most of them had hardships making
their way and some died on the way
as well.  This can be both a physical 
and spiritual  way to go.

There is more of a frontier to find.
There are those who we meet on
the way that can use our guidance 
and at the same time we receive 
something  greater too. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Your Free Time

So many are busy however there 
has to be a way  to  find free time.

Free time most people  work
with hobbies. Defining your 
hobbies is  a key. It can be 
part of your life purpose too.

There are always  people around
when it comes to your hobbies.
In fact they  can be a hobby in
itself too. 

I see many have sports and or
travel for their hobby. If you are
single it is a good way to find
someone  else to be involved. 
If you are married or have a
partner finding another couple 
to do this hobby  with is good 
too. This will make your purpose 
feel even better.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

One Step At A Time

It is so important in life
to take one step at a 
time. 

Some steps we may fail 
however keep going is
the key. We might fall
many times but we have
victory each time we get
up.

When you see another 
fall pick him or her up
as well. We should be
excited that we are here
to help others besides
just living life for a period
of time that goes by a
flash.

It is so important to learn
and grow along the way.
When another person 
comes to our mind we
should pray for them 
and if possible call or
text them. 

May this day be another
of blessing to walk and
lift others up who have
fallen on the side of the
road. ♥♥♥♥

What To Look Forward To

We all have areas of weekness
where we don't feel that we can
do our life purpose.

Often the weaknesses are in
areas we are called to do our 
purpose. All we can do is press
on and do our very best.

We can't let Satan get the best
of us. We must have  faith in God
and our purpose. 

We must battle when our minds
say this is impossible. Let you
know I am in the same place as
you I am no different. I am here 
to encourage you and myself
at the same time.

May you be  blessed this weekend
in whatever you do. Encourage
others as well as yourself. Get 
help when you need it too. ♥♥♥♥

A Good Walk

Exercising is a good thing
always. Walking can heal
many injuries. I know it
has helped me on many
occasions.

On Wednesday I walked
outside as it was a good
outside. November it doesn't
happen as often as I would 
like for raining weather. I have
seen some people still walk
when it is a light rain. 

I figured it was a good time to 
be outside and have fresh air.
Also good to meet other people
and on occasion someone I 
haven't seen in a while.

Like I have mentioned before we
are all unique and some don't
talk as much as others. That is
OK.  At the very least it is good
to say hello and know that they
are acknowledged. Who knows
it could be a day they could use
our help. This is the best deal.

So have yourself a wonderful day
and acknowledge someone
whether you are busy or not.

Holiday Season

The holiday  season is a good time
of the year to use our life purpose. 

We are around family  so we can
enjoy the time of the year.

People are out shopping for gifts
so we can share our internal gifts
with them.

There are those who might me lonely 
so giving them words of encouragement and comfort  is pleasing. 

When you are out shopping  for  a  gift
for family or close friends add another
to give to someone  who might not
going to receive one.

Another good thing about the holiday 
season  we can get out of our comfort 
zone as well.  May this season be a
blessing to you and those you meet.

Our Job and Career

Though our life purpose  is  more then that
job and career is important  piece of it.

Sometimes  people change jobs and careers
several times during the working life. For
instance my brother  has had the career 
in being a business consultant he has had
four different jobs. The company he works 
for now he will  end with retirement. 

He has worked the longest for this current 
firm as well.  Hecis going to get  two pensions
from the first two though not as much with
the last two firms. These last two he gets
an IRA instead. Though his career has been
business  consulting he worked differently 
with each company. 

My brother used his talents to carve a good
career however it moved into the other areas
like his marriage  and  raising  children. All
his children are adults now and he is a grand
father too. We he retires he will use his talents 
and gifts to do other things.  It is always an
adjustments  when that happens. 

Whether you are still working  or  you are 
retired you have high value in your purpose.

Family, Love And Loyalty

On Monday  I was at the gym and I saw a 
guy wearing a shirt that said family, love 
and loyalty  on the back of it. I  thought
the guy had the right thought.

A lot of  people  have  shirts on that have
words and they are not all good. He was
starting the right message.  In our world  
or at least the one I  see some times or
read about this is far from it.

I fortunately able  to  find people  who
share some of the same values I do.
Not sure what the percentage  is however
they are kind to one another for most
part.

I  would put love at the top of list followed
by family and loyalty.  It is so important 
we are loyal to our family and those we 
feel  the closest to.  

I enjoy seeing  those at the gym even if
it is only once in a while. I  like the fact
I  have gotten to know more of them.
I  would call them to be circle of friends 
to some degree. Often friends become
family since we may spend more time
with them  besides family.  I  am  saying 
about our grown siblings then  our spouse 
and children. It doesn't  take away what
they mean to us.  

So maybe this is a good motto to have
family, love and loyalty.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Our Age

When it comes to our age we may wonder
if we have anything  to  offer to others and
whether we do have a  purpose in our life.

It is a fair question  to  ask. The three age
groups that may have doubt and wonder 
if they have anything to offer. There is
the youth, middle  age and seniors.

The youth who are not sure they are ready
yet. It is  the parents who can teach team 
that they have a purpose.  The youth can
help help other youths. They can be bold to 
share with those who are older then them.

Middle  age may wonder whether there are
leaning toward the senior group. They have
children in college  or they have grandchildren.
You still have words of wisdom to share with
those who are young and with those who are
in college  you can always ask how they are
doing. You can let them know your experience 
when you were their age. You can speak with
those in your age group who are going through 
the same transition you are and you can let
seniors know they are not forgotten.

Seniors can  be  a  tough time since often those
younger have forgotten  about you and what the
experience  you have to help them to continue in
life. For those who  are  seniors this could be the
greatest time in your life purpose.  Don't  let  fear
or doubt eat you up. You  have the time and you
can spend it with other seniors to encourage. 
Keep your eyes open for those around you. Don't 
let any health issues  get in the way either.

We all need each other regardless  of each one's
age. Our gifts and talents should be shared with
anyone you come into contact with.  When you
wake up ask God what you can do today. Meditate
and see what comes to your mind. Pray those need
to hear what comes to your mind. You can ask for
even one word to share.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

About Your Experience

In the last post I  wrote about
opening our eyes and about 
looking for others  experiences. 

I hope it all goes well  for each 
of us. It doesn't  matter how old
we are to share where we have
been and where we want to go.

God has a big plan for each of 
us greater than we know. I  have
a friend and fellow church member
at a young age got hooked on drugs.
As a young adult he landed in jail. 
He heard about Jesus  Christ while
in prison and his life turned around.

Now he visits  prisons sharing not
only Jesus  Christ however his life
experience.  God turned him around
to help others who went through the
same thing.

Not everyone  will accept  what we
say however if one person  life turns
than it is worth  it. This is what I  do
with this blog. Whoever has a life
change or has improvement to their
life I am doing a good  thing and doing
what I am here for.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Keeping Your Eyes Open

It s so important  we keep  our eyes
open to those who become part of 
our circle.  Those we may have not 
known before or we didn't  think 
would  be in the group. 

There are people that can use our
purpose  and we can use their's  
as well. We can all use a group 
of friends that can make us even 
better.

We should tell others our life 
experiences that will be an
impact on their lives. The 
best way though is to have
them open up about their's.
This happens  more one on 
one.

In a group  setting we can 
speak our experiences more
easily when the opportunity 
arises.

A good way to encourage 
others is for them to open
up. Our similarities and
differences can be an impact
on everyone  involved. We
should known we are here
together.  ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Looking Ahead

Whatever obstacles  we have gone 
through  we can still ahead to the
future as well as the present time.

It is okay to  take a little time  off
though should keep in touch with
those who are friends and the ones
you have mentored or part of your
life purpose. 

It doesn't  mean  while taking  the
time off you have to spend a lot
of talking to them. You can email
or text message or talk on the
phone letting  them know though
you are taking a short break they 
are still on your mind. 

If you made any appointments  
during the time off you can 
extend them depending on the
person. How much time off 
depends on you. For some it
could be a week  or  a month.
Energizing yourself and having
your mind in is a good thing.
Think like you are on vacation 
and you can take a vacation if
it is the best way to energize.

Looking ahead and making plans
is always a good idea although 
today is still the most important 
thing. If you are studying to help
becoming  better person  in doing
your purpose it is good to begin
those exercises  as soon as possible.

May you have a wonderful  weekend 
and your rest or whatever your plans
for it go well.   ❤️❤️❤️❤️
