Presonal Life Mission Statement

What is my purpose for being on this earth? Your mission is unique to you yet blesses the universe. Here are some hints: What puts a sparkle in your eyes—your deep gladness? And what pulls at your heartstrings—some hunger of the world? Avoid being too general (to glorify God) or too specific (to play the piano). Yet put your flesh on your mission: to glorify God through the song of your life in a way that speaks to working years or retirement or even disability. Rework your mission and keep it short; repeat it as a prayer of your heart; put it on a card inside your closet or desk or in your wallet.
--Kent Ira Groff, The Soul of Tomorrow’s Church
