A friend asked for prayer for finding God in the workplace. It is easy to see God working in the day to day events. All of us, if we are attuned to God, can’t help notice the God-moments that bubble up throughout the day. But that’s not what she was talking about. She was talking about discernment of God’s long-term plan for her life.
Meaning and purpose—finding your life’s mission—this is no easy task. Those are the exact issues I’ve been struggling to resolve for the past year or so. I don’t have answers yet, nor have I discovered a way to find the answers.
While we’re growing up, our parents tell us exactly what they expect of us. In school, teachers give us detailed assignments and deadlines, and grade our performance. On the job, employers tell us specifically what work they have planned for us and hold us accountable for doing it well and finishing it on time.
But what does God want from us? What are his plans for us? What tasks has he set us? What mission does he want us to fulfill? If you figure out how to get him to answer those questions, let me know.
