Purpose with meaning

Purpose with meaning may be your companion to a successful journey. Study after study will tell you how journaling impacts your health. But where do you begin. The important thing is you just begin.

Buy a notebook or journal and write your thoughts down. You may purchase one of the many journals available on Amazon or at your nearby bookstore. Just begin! You’ll thank me once you begin.

Think of journaling as having a map, leading you from where you are now to where you desires take you. You are here and this is where you want to be. I will describe this acronym “MAPS”

Purpose with Meaning — Bluewater Bridge Port Huron, Michigan

Mentally

· Releasing your thoughts, letting go of anxious thoughts.

· Invite positive thoughts and affirmations into your mind.

· Be grateful every moment, every experience, good or not so good.

· Gather these thoughts and write about them. Put them all together and make sense of it all.

Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don’t you remember? Mark 8:18(NIV)

Affectionately

· Emotional benefits can come from showing and receiving affection with a genuine and honest view of ourselves and others.

· A person with a love for humanity always sees the good in people. Being tenderhearted, with devotion and love.

· Empathy is a shared experience you feel an emotional experience. Feeling with someone.

· Sympathy, on the other hand, is compassion but missing a shared emotion. Feeling for someone.

A merry heart is like good medicine Proverbs 17:22(NKJV)

Physically

· Studies have revealed that exercise is vital to a healthy lifestyle.

· Simply breathe whenever you feel discouraged or overwhelmed may help release anxiety.

· Demanding careers may feel like a workout at times, so it is very important to maintain selfcare

Never be lazy but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically. Romans 12:11(NLT)

Spiritually

· Prayer and meditation

· Reading and studying scripture

· Fellowship with other believers

· A healthy balance of mind, body and spirit

Keep on asking, and you will be given what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7 (NLT)

Purpose with Meaning

God shows us through glimpses of many things, but do we pay attention?

Do you hurry through your daily life without finishing or focusing on what is truly important?

Purpose with Meaning

I always thought my purpose was to choose as a career that would serve others and bring delight to the Lord. But in 2019 when we laid my Mom to rest, is when I discovered; “Purpose isn’t about me or my career, and it changes” throughout our lives as we serve others.

Now I aspire to all I can through the strength God has given to me to follow “MAPS”; Will you join me? Once you start following a weekly or daily routine and start focusing on what God wants and where He has placed you now, you’ll live the life of your dreams with a purpose of meaning.
