Why Am I Here?

 It has been a couple of days and I have been reflecting on some of the struggles in my life as of late. Honestly, I am have become grateful for them cause without them I wouldn't know if I was following what God has for my life.
   Tonight I attended a concert in town. The band was Gungor. I knew that they played some praise and worship. I was surprised that they were actually more like a soft rock band than a praise and worship band. It was absolutely amazing. There have been only a few times in my life where I have felt the Spirit of God moving through a congregation. Tonight was one of those times. Feeling the Spirit move was awe inspiring. I can't even begin to describe what I felt. Afterward I attend the college and career Bible study that is held at Taylor Road Baptist Church. The book as I have mentioned before really hit home some more things that I have in my life that are keeping me from my full and true potential in fulfilling God's plan for my life.
  Ok now that I have told you that I want to jump back to Monday night at Resonate. Lee the usual speaker was not there because of a recent surgery. That meant that our favorite guest speaker was speaking. He talked about Esther. How we as people more importantly as Christians are more concerned about why we are here than with since we are here what does God want us to do. See we were placed on this earth at this time to the parents we have, in the place where we are for a greater picture or purpose. As we live our Christian lives we have that purpose revealed to us. Sometimes just a little of it others time a lot of it. In those times when we have a lot we complain and belly ache. People will tell us don't worry God will not put more on you than you can handle. Which in all actuality is a load of crock. God puts things on us more than we can handle because we aren't supposed to handle it God is through us. Anyway, Jim really put into perspective some of the reasons why I am here.
   I am grateful for all of these things and friends to share it with.
I hope that all of you readers out there know that I love you and that God loves you. I also hope that you know your purpose is greater than even you could imagine. So, go with God He will never steer you wrong.
