Earth Guide: You have a unique purpose

Chapter 3. 

You were created out of a desire to grow and express a unique destiny. Only you and God knows what that destiny is and that is why it is important to stay connected with God within yourself.  With all the trauma (and distractions) of going through childhood, including the time when you were a baby, as an adult remembering why you came to Earth world can be difficult!

However it is easy to determine your purpose.  Pay attention to the ideas and activities that give you a sense of joy when you think about them or engage in them.  If an idea makes you feel open and relaxed you are headed in the right direction.  If you feel tense or fearful, then you are headed in the wrong direction.  

An example of going in the wrong direction could be as follows:

You are seeking employment and you have a set of skills.  Perhaps you can type, read instructions well, write and are comfortable greeting people.  You like to dress a certain way that blends in with the world.   When you look at your jobs list and as you read the descriptions, you might immediately pass over restaurant jobs because you have no experience carrying trays loaded with plates. Instantly we read the words "Waitress or waiter, you feel a resistance to the scenario playing out in your mind.  So as soon as you sense the “disaster” you continue on until you read a title like receptionist or office assistant and job listings that describe what you believe you can manage.  Your feelings as you read through the list of things you can and are willing to do points you in the right direction.

Another example perhaps you might have experienced this in your days of being a teenager could have been as follows:

Whenever you were able to choose your elective (courses that were not mandated) you looked for art classes.  You felt good the moment you know that such a class existed and you even got excited! Your feelings were telling you that you were moving in the right direction toward a greater purpose that only you and God knew about.

God gives us the freedom to choose and we choose best from that place.  We choose worse when we are choosing out of fear, for example taking any job because we need money.  Besides the challenges that comes with that approach the money is enough of a reward because everyday we face it with stress.  Stress can eat away at you moment by moment and can lead you to unhealthy pathways in which other challenges seemingly unrelated present.

You have a purpose. God the master artist has created every living being and seemingly non-living thing in the universe with a unique purpose. Much like when a master artist paints or sculpts, every item created is with a purpose.  You only need to check in with your inner guidance to discover yours if you haven’t already.
