#084: 3 Questions To Help You Discover Your Purpose

Fear invites us to experience life differently than love does. What we experience, we will share. You're in the right place if you want to experience and share love--not fear. You're in the right place if you're hungry to discover your true PURPOSE in life and, perhaps, let go of an invalid identity that's wearing you out and keeping you afraid. In this episode, I share a vulnerable story from my childhood about an experience that offered me an invalid identity. And I admit that my real destiny just sat waiting for me while I pretended my purpose was something God never said it was. Doug and I share our own answers to 3 powerful questions that can help you discover your purpose, too, in a world without fear, and we offer these TAKEAWAYS: "Maybe the journey isn't so much about becoming anything.  Maybe it's about unbecoming everything that isn't you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place." (unknown) "Fear makes us see things that aren't there, imagine things that'll never happen, connect dots and draw conclusions that are absolutely incorrect.  Love opens up our hearts to trust our loving Father.  Love inspires us to believe the best, not fear the worst.  Spend some time pondering the love God has for you."  (Susie Larson) Spend some time journaling about these 3 questions:  (1) Who am I when no one needs me? (2) What is my most passionate YES? (3) What is my most powerful NO?
