Quotes about Purpose

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. ROMANS 8:28

The man who is out doing something isn't tired. If you're not getting into good causes, no wonder you're tired. You're disintegrating. You're deteriorating. You're dying on the vine.

Lord: "I believe You have a plan for my life, so there must be some purpose in my getting fired. Instead of railing against my fate, I humbly ask You to show me the purpose in what has happened."

Work is not your enemy but your friend. How you work, not what you do, determines the course of your life. You may work grudgingly or you may work gratefully; you may work as a human or you may work as a robot. There is no work so rude that you may not exalt in it; no work so demeaning that you cannot breathe soul into it; no work so dull that you may not enliven it.

I will live this day as if it is my last. And if it is not, I shall fall to my knees and give thanks.

I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle that produced me end with my brith? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?

As you become more clear about who you really are, you'll be better able to decide what is best for you - the first time around.
