Turning 40 - It’s All About the Journey

What is 40? It is a great song by U2, but that is not what I mean today. Today I turn 40. I have not struggle with turning 40 as some do, but it has caused me to reflect on my life. To tell the truth, I have been reflecting for a month or so on this as I have been heading toward the BIG 40. In my reflecting, I have thought “what positive difference have I made in peoples lives”. This has caused me to think more deeply. I have come up with a life purpose statement as a result of this reflecting. I want to make a positive difference for Christ in peoples live and then in turn see them make a positive difference for Christ in peoples lives. Whether this statement will change or morph over the years I do not know, but I would suspect that it will, but for now this is what I want to see happening. I want my life and my time here on this planet to count for the Kingdom of God both now and for eternity. Do you have a life purpose statement and if you do what is it? Read more from Jim at his blog.
