It doesnt matter what you do if it is for the wrong reasons

It occurs to me that there are many things in life to occupy your time with. You can be aimless and not even care and end up in a dead end job that simply pays the bills. You can be too focused on obtaining some convoluted "Americanized Dream", you can be ruled by addiction or obsession. The bottom line is that the world does not need people that play at being important or simply do what ever will get them by or get them the benz in the driveway, as Gil Bailie puts it, “Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”

Life has a purpose and that purpose is firstly to know God, and secondly to live your life for him.
