More Clues To Your God Given Purpose

I told you I would reveal more clues to your assignment. You really have to understand that God brought you here to this earth to do a work. There are gifts and talents on the inside of you that will help solve somebody's problem. We're saved to save others. Everyone does not have to be a preacher behind the pullpit, but we are God's representatives in the earth. It's all about pleasing God with our lives. Fullfillment comes when you are living out your purpose. Let me give you some more clues to revealing your assignment.

5. What grieves you is a clue to something you are assigned to heal.
What grieves you? Battered wives? Abused and molested children? Ignorance? Disease? Poverty? Pornography? Homosexuality? Abortion? Name it. Be honest with yourself.

What makes you cry is a clue to a problem God has anointed you to change, conquer, and heal.
For example:
I hate to see marriages end in divorce, I hate to see young girls get led astray and end up in a spiritually dry place due to their decisions. I also hate to see people who are lost and don't know their way.
It reflects in my music because I give people wisdom on how to handle life situations the godly way so you know how to come out of depression and how to treat your spouse or even love yourself.

6. What you love is a clue to the gifts, skills, and wisdom you contain.
Love Births Wisdom.
Let me explain. When you have a love for children, a special wisdom begins to grow and develop in you toward children. You begin to understand their fears, tears, and desires. When you have a love for animals, you develop an intuition, a special wisdom for their behavior and conduct. You can sense what they are feeling. When you need wisdom in your marriage, love for your mate must be birthed first. Wisdom is the product of love.
So find what you truly and continuously love, and build your daily agenda around it. Discern your gifts. Name your calling. Whatever you are gifted to do is what you should be doing. What you truly love the most is a clue to a marvelous gift and quality inside of you.

7. Your assignment is geographical.
This one is very important. Where you are determines what grows within you. Your weaknesses or strengths require a climate. You cannot work on the wrong job, for the wrong boss, doing the wrong things for 40 hrs a week and wonder why two hours per week in church does not change your life! Geography plays a major role in every success story.

God will not bless you just anywhere you go. God will bless you, however, if you are willing to go anywhere in order to obey and please him! Where you are determines what grows withing you-weeds or flowers, strengths or weaknesses.
Have you noticed that when you are in the presence of certain friends you laugh at different jokes? Have you noticed the topic of conversation often changes, depending on the person you are around? When you are with the right people, the best comes out of you and the worst part will die. Your success is always linked to a Place: the place is your assignment.

Think about what you just read and I'll give you a few days to think and meditate on this before I reveal more clues to your assignment.

Sincerly,
Shei Atkins
