My favorite P words

1. Purpose

Purposeful. That's one word I've been hearing quite frequently from a friend. I've been thinking about it and MY GOLLY. Most of what I do revert to another P - Pointless!

SO. How do we define if what we're doing is Purposeful?
First, shape your purpose. Second, make sure the plans fit!

All my blogs have always entirely been about me me me me me and me. I finally cleaned up my blog because I want it to be Purposeful. And my purpose is to glorify God. The plan? This leaves us to my second P...


2. Passion

Passion is what drives you. It's that something that you'd do even if no one asked you to.

Two years ago, a friend asked me what I was passionate about. I was dumbfounded! It took me quite a long time before I realized what some of my passions are. Hopefully, I'll learn more about them in the NEAR (haha) future.

Obviously, one of the things I'm passionate about is writing! What are you passionate about? :)


3. Privilege

A privilege is a special right not available to everybody. In a nutshell, EVERYTHING is a privilege.

I'll talk more about this on a different post.


4. Provision

I believe I always had been sort of a materialistic kid. Good thing, God knows it so much. Growing up, I had been surrounded with people, whom I believe, have gifts as their love language. YAY! :) Haha.

Yesterday, I received gift #1 on my mental Wish List! YIPEE!!!!!!!

It's an NIV Study Bible. :) I found it in my Mom's shelf. It's really cool since it even has a cross-reference system, maps, pictures of temples/buildings and many other whatchamacallits!

At first, I wasn't exactly gleeful. I was grateful but not totally. I really felt like a total ingrate. I prayed about it then WHOA. I realized that God answered two of my prayers.

Recently, I've been having a hard time reading the Bible since I couldn't fully comprehend what was happening and why they were happening. With the Study Bible, it helped show me some light on a couple of things. (and hopefully many more things in the future! :) )

See? God really knows me and my love language so much. :D Thank you for the gift, Daddy! :)


5. Providence

In the end, I'm really glad I don't get my way. With all my bad decisions and judgments, I literally wouldn't stand a chance without Him. :)
