I am not an accident

I fulfilled day 2 of my promise. I read day 2, it wasnt as interesting as day 1, but it confirmed some things i already knew. I was born for a reason. Even though i wasnt planned by my mother, I was brought into this world for a reason. The book says I was made exactly the way God wanted. My characterizations was all in his plan. Why would he create me with flaws? Why not create every human perfect? That is a question I hope to have an answer one day. If I was created the way God planned, that means i have to accept everything about myself. Verse to remeber: I am your creator. You were in my care before you were born.

Finding my purpose

So i bought this book titled, "The Purpose Driven Life" The book asks you to make a covenant to commit 40 consecutive days, reading a chapter per day. Today March 11, 2009 I read the first chapter. So far so good. 40 days im gonna try my hardest to blog about the valuable information I took in. I realized that I was living a self-centered life. I do think about others, and usually put others first. The person I should put 1st in life was the one on the back burner. Before my mom knew who I was, God already had me envisioned. If he created me, then he's the holder of my purpose. Im not the most spiritual person, but as i take this step into marriage, I plan to build a stronger relationship with God. Something the book say that touched my heart was " A rope made of three cords is hard to break. With God completing Joyce and I, nothing can stop us. I must learn that its not about me. I must live for God and he will reward me with great Joy and satisfaction. How can i remind myself,that im supposed to live for God and not me? Bible verse for the day, Everything got started in him, and finds its purpose in him. I really cant wait to get into day 2.
