Determined Purpose
Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord. — Philippians 3:8

What is your determined purpose in life? Everyone has one. Some of us declare it, and others of us just practice it.

But we all have something that is our purpose in life—something that gets us up in the morning, something we live for, something we would even be willing to die for.

The Apostle Paul's determined purpose was to know the Lord. Paul wrote to the church at Philippi, "But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord" (Philippians 3:7–8).

Paul recognized the wonder of becoming more intimately acquainted with Him. God can be known. Not completely grasped. Not completely understood. But at the same time, God can be known in a personal and a very real way.

What a great purpose in life. I hope it's yours.

What is my purpose? To carry the message of recovery. To make people take a look at themselves and their relationship with the God of their understanding. To tell people to not be so hard on themselves, they are worthy of recovery. To make people aware, that this disease is four fold, and the Steps need to be applied to all areas, mental, emotional, spiritual and physical part of our being, one day at a time.

We didn't get this way over night, we don't get better overnight, recovery is a process.
