What's the PURPOSE????

Have you ever heard anyone say that or have said it yourself? 
Usually that phrase is said because someone just gives up. It's not going the right way or there is a problem...so why continue?

Do you know that EVERYDAY should be a day of purpose?

Have you ever woke up and not had anything to do or planned out your day and it end up being spent doing nothing. How accomplished did that make you feel?

As a stay-at-home wife, I have realized, I love to stay at home, however, I get more completed in the day if I had gone to work and had things to do all day? Why is that? Because I have not had a purpose. I have a ton of things to complete, I just don't seem to feel accomplished by the end of the day.

I have asked God to help me be more organized and I make myself lists of what I need to do. And that has really helped me. But sometimes I make more of a list than I could actually get done in a day and still never feel accomplished.

One day I realized that my days need to have a purpose. Here are 3 definitions of purpose:
  1. reason for existence: the reason for which something exists or for which it has been done or made
  2. desired effect: the goal or intended outcome of something
  3. determination: the desire or the resolve necessary to accomplish a goal
 We all have a reason for existence. We wouldn't be put on this earth if God didn't have a plan for our life. Some people don't understand that and that is why they get depressed and unfulfilled in their life. They feel like they have no meaning...BUT GOD GAVE YOU MEANING! You need to stop listening to the lies of Satan and get in the Word of God and find out what all He has for you! 

 The 2nd definition is the goal or intended outcome of something. My goal was trying to get a list of 10 things done during the day (this did not include the daily chores of house cleaning, washing clothes, etc). I think I would feel more accomplished if I had them on my list.
So when I HAD done at least 5 of those goals, I would feel disappointed in myself because all of the goals had not been completed. Or I would feel overwhelmed by having to do so much, that nothing got done.

 The 3rd definition is the desire to accomplish a goal. That truly IS my desire!!! So, now my purpose everyday is to set a PURPOSE...(which is a goal), yet not a list of 10 things I need to do that day. My purpose for the day may be to complete a blog. To talk to someone I don't know, or make a meal for a family! Everyday should be a day of purpose and once you remind yourself what your purpose truly is, then you will feel accomplished, because your goal has been met and you can set a new goal the next day! 

 PURPOSE today to have PURPOSE in your life EVERYDAY!!! :) GOD has given you a PURPOSE for your life so let Him do HIS PURPOSE in your life!!!!

Football Games and the United States of America

Image
I was at a football game recently and it was so exciting seeing all the fans dressed up in their favorite gear to cheer on their team.  Outside the stadium were tailgaters grilling up their best barbeque and playing games to pass the time away. After all, it was 5 hours till the gates opened. Funny how fast time flies when you keep yourself busy doing things that you love. Once the doors were open, fans would walk a ways to even make it to the stadium. But that's okay because everyone was excited and ready for the big game. It was enjoyable seeing some fans with some wild get-ups. They certainly go all out for the game! Fans were packing in the huge stadium, everyone was wearing the same colors, however, only a few that decided to try to pack in the same stadium, took their chances and put on their team colors and were there to support their "the other" team. It's very interesting listening to the people around you. They yell at the referee's most

Standing STRONG

  Observing social media posts (and my own incident recently) - THUS THE REASON for this post! 😁 I've found majority of people who post are pitiful, selfish, weak little cry babies when it comes to different situations!   It's times we let our hair down and tell it like it is!!! It helps people when we are REAL about our self and different situations! We ALL have issues, even if you think that you do.I ASSURE YOU, you do!   AND THE bad part about it is SATAN KNOWS! He may see it better than YOU SEE IT! BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS, once we see and realize it, then we can make adjustments and move on!   I hate talking about myself....ESPECIALLY about issues that I encounter.......my here goes...so bare with me. It's not about the success of dieting, because we can ALL be successful at something....BUT the knowledge of the root of the issue!   So, all my teenage years through adult life I've never really liked how I've looked! I've always felt fatter t

Mom Memories

It's amazing just how much you REALLY need your mom!  Your mom is always the one that you go to for every day questions, maybe cooking questions, maybe just needing knowledge about an issue. Whatever the case, it's awesome just to call your mom and say hello!  After mom (Bonnie Moore a/k/a Dear Grace) moved to Heaven last October, there's many emotions I've had to deal with. You think you're okay and then out-of-the-blue, something jars your memory and there goes the tears. You often catch yourself wanting to give her a call. My mom was a strong woman. I don't ever recall her being ill many times in her life. When she was sick, she would jump right back in the path of life and get busy. She was always helping other people, whether it was cooking meals, feeding their cats, taking them to the Dr, whatever it was, she was joyful in all she did. Mom would find humor in the small things. She was really a hoot! She loved to go to Branson and en
