Don't just sit there--get out there and find your purpose!
What do you sit around thinking you wish you could do? What is that you wish you had done? Do you ever think "when did the world pass me by?"
Last night the Tiara Ladies had a night at the movies. We donned our sparkly tiaras, grabbed some extras just in case we ran into any ladies we met who needed one, and happily congregated at the local movie theater. We got there early to get in line for Meryl Streep's new movie, Julie and Julia.
We hugged some friends we hadn't seen in a while, gave them their tiaras, and sat down for 2 hours of blissful movie watching. Needless to say we loved the movie. Meryl Streep is an amazing actress. She so beautiful takes on the personna of Julia Child that you believe she really is Julia Child. She exhibits the joy of life the Julia exhibited. We laughed at the opening scene of Julia with an ecstatic look on her face as she tasted perhaps her first taste of marvelous cuisine in Paris. We shared her joy of the city and of the people. We quickly understood that she had found her "home" for the first time at the age of 46. She also sought and found her purpose.
As a Life Purpose Coach with Life Purpose Coach Centers, it is my joy to coach women into finding their God-given purpose. Nothing is more fulfilling to me than to spend 2 intense, wonderful days side-by-side with a woman as she discovers that indeed her life was not wasted--that God is always at work in our lives. What a joy when she looks into the future with hope, knowing that everything she's done and every bit of her pain and joy can be used to fulfill God's perfect design for her. What joy to discover that the embers of her talents, desires and passions can be blown into a fire again in her life.
Has it ever occurred to you that things only pass you by if you are sitting still? And even if those things seem to be racing by you--if you are moving they won't pass you by so quickly and eventually I promise you, you will catch up.
How to find your purpose? Do what both Julia's did--get up, get started. Scripture says seek and you shall find. Let's not ever forget the seeking part.
Pick up a few lobsters and give it a shot!
