What is your purpose in life?

Do you believe that you were made for a purpose? 

It's important to get clarity about that. Because once you are clear about why you are on earth, you can stop compromising. You can stop asking what you're able to do and start doing what you were made to do.

It takes patience to ask that first question about purpose. And it takes courage to answer it.

Too many of us are lacking in patience and courage. But we can get what we lack by learning from the example of others.

Katie dared to ask and answer the question and 14 orphans have a mom because she did.

Anna, Nicole and Julie have started businesses that advance the kingdom. Hundreds of lives are being impacted.

Ryan is in the process of getting married, but he knows 40 orphans await the two of them in Kenya after the wedding.

Here's what I believe God wants us to know down deep: People are waiting for your answer. Their lives may hinge on how you answer it.
