What about it...?

I started this blog to share my personal reflections as I read through the book "The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren. I started reading about a month or so ago and writing a personal reflection after each day of the 40 day journey. The more I wrote, the more fun I thought it would be to share my reflections with others. Each post will have the day and title from the book and the date that I read and wrote it. I hope you enjoy my insights and feel free to post some of your own. Thank you and God Bless!

DAY 2 - June 15, 2010: "You Are Not An Accident"

Point to Ponder: I am not an accident.

Question to Consider: I know that God uniquely created me. What areas of my presonality. background, and physical appearance am I struggling to accept?

I never believed I was an accident. Never have I felt that there was no point. I have always struggled with figuring out WHAT that point is though. Actually, pondering the fact that God specifically designed me to be the way that I am has provided me with some of my most faith rattling moments. Why would God want ME to be like THIS? Why would he make EVERYONE, seemingly wicked, evil people, to be like that? My comfort comes from looking at the enormity of it all. How it is all interconnected. Without darkness, there can be no light. It is all intricately woven together by God, for His purpose. I'm looking at my daughter right now. So tiny, so beautiful, innocent in every way. I have to wonder what God has in store for her. What purpose will she serve in God's Kingdom? Whatever the answer is, I know that she is a part of my purpose. Thanks be to God.

I am your Creator. You were in my care even before you were born. (Isaiah 44:2 CEV)
