Rick Warren : The purpose driven life

rick warren

Sometimes in life it is often better to look before we leap. Or as my blogger friend Tony wrote before somewhere to think before speaking or acting. Anyway a fee of Rm20.00 got me a t-shirt, a book and a ticket on a long journey, a journey of 40 days! I was committed even before I knew what it was all about…. and it started because someone asked : What on earth am I here for?

Anyway Bertrand Russell said : Unless you assume a God, the question of life’s purpose is meaningless.

So the next obvious question would be : who are we?

Russell Kelfer:

You are who you are for a reason.
You are part of an intricate plan.
You are a precious and perfect unique design,
Called God’s special woman or man.

You look like you look for a reason.
Our God made no mistake.
He knit you together within the womb,
You are just what he wanted to make.

The parents you had were the ones he chose,
And no matter how you may feel,
They were custom designed with God’s plan in mind,
And they bear the Master’s seal.

No, that trauma you faced was not easy,
And God wept that it hurt you so;
But it was allowed to shape your heart
So that into his likeness you’d grow

You are who you are for a reason,
You have been formed by the Master’s rod.
You are who you are, beloved,
Because there is a God!
