Living a life of meaning and purpose

October 27, 2011

He who observes the wind will not sow,
            and he who regards the clouds will not reap.

Ecclesiastes 11:4

I saw an interview on television awhile back about the poverty in some portions of our nation today. They were interviewing some people who have been born in poverty and have lived their entire lives with almost nothing to their name. 

It was one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen. And as they interviewed these people, none of them seemed to have any goal or purpose in life. They asked one young man, “What are your dreams?  What is your purpose?” He replied, “I don’t know, just stay here.” 

So many people live like that today. They get up in the morning, slosh down some coffee, go to work, come back home, go to bed, and get up and do it over again. Then one day, they die without ever really living… only existing.

But God calls you and me to much more than just a routine. He calls us to live for something so much greater than ourselves and to experience real life in Him. But to do that, it means breaking out of the ordinary and taking risks for God.

Don’t just settle for the normal. Live with purpose. When you do, you’ll discover that life truly does have meaning beyond just existing!

GOD WANTS YOU TO LIVE WITH PURPOSE FOR HIM. SO BREAK OUT OF THE ORDINARY AND DO SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY FOR GOD TODAY!

Leave a legacy for tomorrow by living one today!

Dear Friend,

In your brief time here on earth, God wants you to make an impact that lasts far beyond your years.  So how can you be sure that the legacy you leave will be strong for generations to come?

In my new 6-message CD series called Legacy, I’ll show you how your legacy for Christ can be cherished long after you’re gone. You’ll find out how a strong, committed relationship with God today can inspire those who come after you. And, you’ll discover how fulfilling your calling as a godly parent will make a lasting impact on your children.

When you live your life for Christ today, you can be sure you’ll leave a powerful legacy of faith for tomorrow!

I want to send you Legacy to thank you for your online donation to PowerPoint today. It’s my prayer that this series will both encourage and equip you to live your legacy now!

And thank you for your gift to reach more people with the hope of Christ. I’m grateful!
