Soul Mission: Determine Your Purpose for Living

DAY 2 OF 6

A central question that your soul mission asks and answers is: “Why do you do what you repeatedly do?” It will take some time to identify those actions and habits. What do you do almost every day? How do you approach most people or situations? Listing these “constants” will help you see them in a new way.

Redirect your thinking if you discover your mission in life is largely unexamined. You may have been trapped by counterfeit values, beliefs, and conduct. You may be trying to live someone else’s mission. Or you may be living in the chaos of inherited and collected mission fragments from many others. Since the genuine mission of your life will arise from the passion of your life, make sure your purpose aligns with your foundational passion—Jesus Christ.

When we derive our identity and purpose from our passion founded in Jesus and His free gift of salvation, that significance in itself sustains us throughout life, even in the face of ghastly personal, family, professional, or ministry failure. We give God and His work true significance in our lives and subscribe to an unshakable and true identity as a new creation in Christ Jesus.

With your foundation firmly in place, let’s further consider what it means to build the ground floor—the mission—of your intentional life.
