LIFE MISSION
Friends,
The time has come
to extend your efforts way beyond your current sights. Consider the changes you have started and
envision them being permanent, and life long.
I brought you up here to get above the world and consider what your role
is in ALL this! See what He sees in YOU.
Consider the experiences of Nephi or Moses when they were carried up by
the spirit to a high mount. They saw not just all of us, but they saw
themselves! They saw who they really
were, are, and needed to be. That vision
gave them a sense of mission that guided their entire lives. Your supernal Father has great plans and
ideas for you if you but choose them.
Today is your opportunity to see as He sees from His view and commit to
become, to choose, and to live with vision.
While here today,
I want you to spend time considering your “Life Mission” and “Commitments”. Be bold. Step out in Faith. Draw a line in
the sand. Decide today to take
responsibility and power for your actions. Allow the Atonement to extend beyond a
theoretical conversation, make it REAL!
Allow it to change, lift, and expand who you are!
Write down, and
commit to BE someone! Your Holiness
Experiment was only a start!
Some tools below
have been given to guide you in your effort.
Some Principles of Life Missions
·
Mission is more than a career or occupation, it
is connecting with something bigger than you
·
A life mission should extend beyond any
checklist, and permeate every facet of your life
·
It needs to be something you are passionate
about and committed to
·
Ultimately it leads us back to the Doctrine of
Christ and the Plan of Salvation
·
It something that connects very deep and to the
core of who you are, your purpose, and well-being
·
It is the meeting point between natural aptitude
and personal passion
Some Principles of Commitments
·
Commitments serve as guiding principles that
help me stay anchored in my life mission
·
They help us become our true selves by acting
like who we want to be
·
Make personal commitments to ourselves, the area,
and Heavenly Father
·
Accountability: I want to know how invested you
are in making a difference in yourself, your area, and eventually the world.
Some study references to help along the way….these are not
comprehensive.
