"It is finished." John 19:30
Jesus accomplished what he was here to accomplish and then breathed his last.
I take this to mean that as long as you are breathing you still have a purpose.
As long as you are existing there is a reason for you to exist.
Our goal is to recognize this fact and then attempt to understand what our purpose is.
By the words, "It is finished" Jesus was saying that he accomplished what he set out to accomplish, in other words when he died upon the cross there was nothing that he left unfinished.
Our hope is that when we come to the end of our journeys that we will also be able to say "It is finished" and know that we have also accomplished that task that God has set for us.
Jesus understood his purpose and lived his life accomplishing that purpose, I pray that we can all say the same.
+ Do you believe that God has a particular purpose for your life?
+ Do you know what it is?
