Live On Purpose

It's time, today, right now, to live on purpose.  Don't just exist!  Really LIVE!  Dare to be Bold, step out of that comfort zone and be Brave!  I attended the most awesome virtual retreat today and discovered that I am here to serve God's purpose.  He has instilled in me a desire to dream and achieve such heights I could never believe attainable.  What are your dreams and desires? What would your ideal life look like?  Take a few minutes to write down what you really want.
It's so fun to dream about what the ideal life would be like.  Like imagining what you would do if you won the lottery.  I don't gamble but I have dreamed of what I'd do if I won the lottery.  My favorite is the HGTV Dream House.  I sign up every year and am sooo disappointed when someone elses name is called.  I love to dream what I'd do if I won it.  How I'd sell it and buy land and build my own awesome house.  
I'm talking to myself about living on purpose.  I just exist and am tired of it! I have been praying for clarity, for direction.  I have this deep desire to write and speak, but I have no training and have a fear of public speaking.  Why do I want to do the things that scare me the most.  I have a desire to motivate and uplift others and write a book about it.   It sounds so silly to put that out for others to hear.  Oh what others will think.  Why do I worry about such things?  I'm ashamed to say that I have felt a leading to fast and pray but I haven't done it yet.  I don't know why, I just haven't.  It's kinda scary if you've never done anything like that.  I have been feeling this for some time.  Don't ask me why I haven't been obedient, I'm not sure.  Since I have been disobedient my mind is so fuzzy and unclear.  I know if I will obey God and do what he is telling me to do, I will have a clear mind and vision.  I have been struggling for some time with God's calling on my life.  What is it?  What am I here for?  
Do you ask yourself these questions? 
We must remember Philippians 4:6 - Don't be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving, present your requests to God.   
The Power of Cultivating an Intimate Relationship with Christ.  
Prayer Time:
Praise: Maybe listen to your favorite worship music
Gratitude: Keep a journal
Prayer: like Philippians 4:6 and Matthew 7:7-8 
Listening: What is God saying to me?  Write down what you hear God saying.  
Take time to spend with God and then listen to what he says.  Keep a journal. 
Make today count!!
