Creating The Good Life--Day 2

Comments (0)

Your Daily Inspiration for Friday January 08, 2010:

I have a divine purpose to my life, that is truly all good and all GOD. As I remain open and receptive to spiritual guidance, my divine purpose is revealed with clarity and ease. Thank you GOD.





The new year is a time for new beginnings and a good time to focus on how we can use our God-given power to create the "good life" we were intended to live. The good life is that deeply fulfilling life full of the things, situations, circumstances and outcomes that satisfy the soul. For the next several days, I will write a series of inspirational pieces detailing some key steps to creating and living your "good life".


Step #2: Tune into your true life purpose.

Each of us has a purpose in this life we have been given. That purpose arches over and beyond our self-centered needs and desires for fulfillment. It is above ourselves and typically has to do with a contribution we are to make to the world; a contribution that benefits others outside ourselves.

Everyone's true life purpose is different. It may not be obvious to you yet. And, even if it is, it may evolve and change over time. But to the extend that you know, or have an inkling what it is, take note and take heed because it should be a factor in the Vision (and vision board, to be explained later) that you will create as you pursue your "good life". Ask Divine Guidance to reveal your life purpose and be prepared for the revelation.






















Your purpose is divine,

Barr
