deep title. I know. but I was going for the subject of purpose and the song crept in my head (can’t remember who its by now) with the lyrics “what’s this life for”. So we are going with it but I promise this probably won’t be as deep as the title

So I have realized that I have about 1.2 million things swirling around my head at the moment (thanks to a January packed with Imaging, Dane, and other random things) and I sit down to write and I can’t get anything out because its all so jumbled. So, today I’m picking one thing that I’m chewing on.

Again, mission mondays are just a random things going on in my brain. I like to share them here to get them out, share a little of me personally, and maybe inspire someone to think on these things as well. no preachy preachy, literally just my thoughts…more for me to help process:)

So, purpose. why am i here? its the constant question on my mind. always. am I where I’m supposed to be?
growing up my only true goal was to be happy. thats it. that still is my only goal. whether my life is in a small house here in knoxville running my business or living in a hut overseas. I truly am ok with any and all as long as I am happy and know that I’m where I am supposed to be.
but I struggle with knowing that I am where I’m supposed to be. struggle with being content where I am rather than always looking forward.
This month something happened. slowly, not sure when and where. but I became content. content right now, with life.
Content that I am where I need to be and that I need to make the best of it now in order to get to where I want to be. What good is today if you throw it out in an effort to get to tomorrow?
So today I enjoyed my life. I made the most of it. Yes, I’m looking forward to the future; yes, God is definitely not done and I know I’m not where I’ll end up in any way but. I.am.content.
here is one of the sources of my contentment:)
