dailydatewithgod

God guides us through an internal knowing.  From this knowing extends our sense of purpose.  We can sense that knowing if we slow down and take a moment to connect.  This is where my date time with God, otherwise known as daily prayer and meditation, comes into play.  We all know when we are choosing from our hearts.  We sense a peace in knowing we are making the right decision for that moment. Our purpose comes in living from our hearts.  Our purpose is to be happy.  God wants us to be happy.  Living from our hearts enables that happiness to guide our purpose.  We tend to think of happiness as something we gain from outside of ourselves.  We think that when we reach a certain stature, own a certain item, or have a net worth of a certain amount we will be happy.  We can certainly enjoy these things but because they do not come from our hearts, they are fleeting.  God invites us quietly and from within ourselves to explore our true happiness and fulfill our purpose of living from our hearts.

My prayer for us is the willingness to spend some time in meditation today getting to know our hearts and thus our purpose.

If all you needed to do to connect with your purpose is spend a few minutes meditating on your heart each day, how could God assist you in making it happen?  Share in the comments.
