Francis P Martin in his book, Hung By The Tongue stated, “You must know God’s will for your life in order for you to think correctly. . . . If you do not know where you are going, how can you apply faith and correct words to direct your life?”

Having a dream, chief aim and goals in you life are important if you want to be the best version of you possible in the fulfilment of your purpose and destiny. It is not necessary to know all the details in your journey, but it is advisable to know what your next step will be and that it is taking you in the right direction.

Remember, go as far as you can see and when you get there, you will see further. Then continue to go as far as you can see, because you will then see further. Faith and trust that the Holy Spirit will guide you to where you need to be, if you will pay attention, is a valuable asset. Proverbs 3:5-6 tell us, “Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. {6} Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight.”

I believe we need to make the decision to align our thinking according to God’s directions for our life. In so doing we are not giving up our right of choice, we are exercising our free will to follow the One who knows what is best for our life. Like Jesus, we are declaring, “I have come not to do my own will, but the will of the one who sent me” (John 6:38).

In the living out of your, “Why am I here?” question, you will find the benefits and value of that answer.
