Reason For Living

"He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus." - Philippians 1:6

Most everyone is interested in discovering his purpose for living - the reason for being born and the reason for existing.

Well, I have good news. God has put that desire within you, for as your Creator, He has a purpose and plan for your life. Your role is to discover it and use the gifts and the talents and opportunities that God has given you to make the most of your life. God's ultimate purpose is that everyone would have a personal relationship with Him through faith in Jesus Christ. And everyone can - through faith.
Then there is more good news. God's word says, "I am confident...that He who began a good work in you will carry it to completion until the day of Jesus' coming."

What a promise! Once we put our life and trust in God, He then promises us He'll begin to reveal our life purpose to us. He'll also provide the power needed to see that we get it done. So, what are you waiting for? It's time to discover your reason for living and live it out.

When I came into recovery, it was stop the world I want to get off. In recovery, I found a reason for living. First by healing my self through the 12 Steps, and then by sharing my experience, strength, and hope with others.

When I went to my first open meeting, I heard people laughing. I thought what have they got, I don't belong here. They sounded like they were high. I found it was a natural high and I wanted some of it. I wanted that first promise, "..a new freedom and a new happiness."
