Unfolding Your 'Why '

Unfolding Your 'Why '

That prudence may be given to the simple, and knowledge, discretion, and discernment to the youth. The wise also will hear and increase in learning, and the person of understanding will acquire skill and attain to sound counsel [so that he may be able to steer his course rightly] - Prov.1.4-5

Your 'why' is your essence, your life, your ministry, and your purpose for existence. You must understand it, harness it excellently and maximise it. To unfold, maximise and live in purpose, you must pay close attention to your burdens- things that give you concerns and worries, your passion and drive. They have a lot in connection with your 'why'. Do not take the opportunities that come your way for granted. They are specifically designed to help you fulfil your essence. Your background, parenthood, wealth, exposures, trainings, professions and every little or major privilege given to you in life are for a 'why '. They are well divinely planned out for you to fulfill God's plan and purpose. 

 In addition, your natural abilities and potentials, things you do without stress, others struggle in it but you excell without serious ado, pay attention to them and maximise them. Your lifetime trials and challenges are not always for your downfall but a stepping stone to glorification. Why do you have bigger problems compare to others? Why do you have delay in marriage and child bearing? Why are you poor and helpless? Don't always wish or pray them away. Learn to understand why you have to face them and make the best of the experiences for your own good.

Finally, understanding your 'why' is the bedrock of a satisfied life. living in purpose is living in satisfaction. The wisdom of God for discernment is greatly important to achieve this. Identifying and doing what brings you joy and peace of the Spirit. Your joy and happiness are connected with your 'why', and this can only be achieved through the help of God the Master planner. Until we attain this divine realm of revelation and understanding you might find it difficult to discern perfectly what His intentions for you are. But when you do, your life here and hereafter becomes worthy and fulfilling. The 'why' of our life is like a riddle or mystery, unfolding it is the task everyone must personally unravel to avoid living a wasted life. When the purpose of a thing is not known,  abuse is inevitable.
