I signed up to do this eight week "Full Plate Diet" thing at work. Basically we meet weekly and go through the material that is provided. To be honest it has been a bit silly and I can't grasp the concept of filling up your plate with good foods. I'd prefer burgers and fries, but that is not the point of this post. We usually do a few exercises where they ask us to write something down and then we discuss with our group. This particluar one they had asked us to write down our purpose. I very easily filled mine out thinking this was a simple task. I soon realized as we got back together to discuss that this wasn't that easy for most. From what I could tell I was the only one who came up with something. Let me share mine:
My purpose is to raise my children to become well rounded, respectable, christ centered individuals who know they are loved.
If I think back to my days before kids I can bet that I was right there with these other girls. Not knowing what I'm meant for in this life. My children have given me my purpose and they have driven my relationship with God alot closer. I now can't even imagine going back to that previous life. I have all I could ever want and more!
