one single purpose

What is your one single purpose?

I man often asked what I believe my purpose is...and I have given the wrong answer my entire life. A client asked me the other day why I do what I do... I told him that everything I do is for relationships. I love people, I love building up relationships and having an impact on someone's life. That is what brings me fulfillment from my business.

It seemed like a great answer. But the fact of matter is that is wasn't what my answer should've been.

Now all has been heard
here is the conclusion of the matter:
Fear God and keep his commandments,
for this is the duty of all mankind.
For God will bring every deed into judgment,
including every hidden thing,
whether it is good or evil. 

(Ecclesiastes 12:13-14) 

The single purpose of life isn't the mysteries and apparent contradictions we face. The single purpose is knowing God.

In the book of Ecclesiastes, Solomon showed us that we should enjoy life, but that doesn't exempt us from obeying God's commandments. We should search for purpose and meaning in life, but they cannot be found in human endeavors.

We should acknowledge the evil, foolishness, and injustice in life, yet maintain a positive attitude and faith in God.

I encourage you to reshape your one single purpose. It might seem a little weird at first, but when your single purpose is knowing God, I believe that good things will begin to fall in place.
