KNOW YOUR CALLING PART2-Juliet Ike

SERIES: FINDING PURPOSE

EPISODE TWO: THE FOUR IMPORTANT "Ws" 

As much as being hungry for the vision ahead is important, you should also know that the most important is "meeting that hunger-need of yours".

If you are here for the first time, then I will advice that you read the previous episode so you "catch the gist". 

Here is the link to the first episode SIP HERE👉https://teawithjuliet.blogspot.com/2020/07/how-to-discover-your-purpose-pt1-juliet.html?m=1

 In the first episode I tried to share my story on how I was able to find my calling and the results that singular act has commanded. This is no vague or ambiguous saying, for you to walk in that consciousness of being purposeful, then you must do the work in it.

Like I explained earlier, being hungry is not enough, another important thing that you must do is for you to "Look out for the best means of satisfying your cravings".

Let me state at this juncture that these cravings of yours can only be satisfied when you can effectively answer the "Four Ws" of life. This is what applies to every facets of life as well.

They are;

a. What

b. Who

b. Why

d. When

It is when you can answer these four questions as it relates to each phase of your life of which "Purpose" is one of them, then one can say that you are on track.

You need to be able to ask yourself these questions;

1. What am I doing here (earth)?

2. Who am I doing this for?

3. Why was I sent to do this?

4. When am I supposed to accomplish this assignment?

Answering these questions in simple terms I can say we will have the following;

WHAT AM I DOING HERE (EARTH)?

The question of "what" sometimes like ambiguous, nonetheless it is the bedrock upon which other questions lies.

For me, I will say understanding what brought you to earth can only be answered when you make enquires from the ONE who sent you here.

One thing believers fail to understand is that they can not find fulfillment or purpose outside the Creator. The manufacturer knows more about his products than those who fabricated lies and cook up stories.

No matter the books you read on "finding vision or Purpose", the most important is the word of him that has called and sent you forth.

WHO AM I DOING THIS FOR?

First thing to note is, you are not here by accident, there is a purpose to which you have been called. 

Jesus found that purpose as well when he was on earth, which he located from scriptures when He got back from his fast.

He was clearly written in it what He was called to do and the mandate that have been given to him. 

Let me also state here that the endpoint of anything we do on earth either by finding our calling or yes is that "all we do must glorify God". We were first a spirit before we became human.

Now to "who" is answered as "To Glory God's, and to Bless, impact lives with it". So before you set out on discovering or getting to know your vision, these are one of the things that must be put in place and questions that must be answered.

If your skills will not bring glory to God, neither  will it add it value to humanity, then drop it and have a rediscovery of your calling.

WHY WERE YOU SENT?

The question of "why" is simple. Scriptures has unveiled to us so many reasons why were called and chosen to be among those on earth. He said we are "the light of the world, the salt of the earth, the chosen one". 

All if these are not fallacies or to make you feel just special or to motivate you, they are simply "core truths".

So in simple terms we can say your "Why; is because humanity needs you to answer and meet their pressing needs and help them get out of their horrible situations".

WHEN TO FULFILL THE MANDATE?

The answer to this is "NOW". This is the best time for you to fulfill God's calling upon your life. People are wailing, humanity needs your help and as much as you are here, then you have to meet this need.

The Now also equals to your "Light Day" or "Youthful age". Scriptures told us in Ecclesiastes that "you should work now that there is light and you are able-bodied, not when you are old and your bones are already weak (paraphrased)".

So this is a wake-up call to YOU reading this, stop wasting much time in discovering your vision and launching out. The World are waiting for your manifestation (as a child of God that you are).

I am sure you got value, drop a comment if you did and do not hesitate to share the link to this post so others could read it as well.
