Perhaps you are eighteen years old. What have you done so far? Have you spend so much time trying to please your friends that don't know who you are or what your life is about? If so, you aren't doing yourself any favours. You aren't fulfilling your purpose. You may say you are just reacting to "peer pressure." In reality, you are allowing others to rule your life.

What have You done with Your Life?

Every human being was created to accomplish something specific that no one else can accomplish. It is crucial for you to understand this truth: You were designed to be known for something special. You are meant to do something that will make you unforgettable. You were born to do something that the world will not be able to ignore.

Born to Be Known for Something

Have you discovered what your vision is? Finding something you can put your whole self into will fill your life with New hope and purpose. It will give you a reason for living. My purpose has become my passion. It wakes me up in the morning, and it keeps me going when I'm tired. It is an antidote to depression. It causes me to have joy in the midst of great opposition because I know that what God has given me to accomplish cannot be stopped by anyone.

What Your Vision Will Give You 

It is a deeply distressing fact that, while we all have been given unique visions, too many of us bury our dreams in a lesser existence, making ourselves a graveyard of God's precious treasure.

A Vision for Your Life

God not only created each person on earth with a distinct design, but he also placed in everyone a unique vision. No person can give you this vision it is only God-given. You can go to as many seminars as possible and receive all kinds of wonderful instruction, but no one except God can give you the idea you were born to fulfill.

Born with a Unique Vision

How long will you drift along without working toward your dream? Procrastination can become a full-time occupation. Some people are experts at it. They know how to avoid the real issues of life with precision. They know how to do nothing all day, or they know how to do everything except what is really important. It's depressing to be around people who are just existing, but it's exciting to be around people who know that they are doing what they were born to do.

Procrastination kills your Vision

When you discover your vision it will give you energy and passion. Ecclesiastes 9:10 says, "whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might." The vision in your heart is the spark that will enable you to pursue your dream because unless you do so with all your enthusiasm and strength, it will not happen. Hard work and diligence are essential ingredients to success, but they require an internal motivation, that internal motivation is vision.

Your Vision is your Internal Motivation.

You will never be satisfied living that way because you were not created to be "normal". You were designed by God not to blend in but to stand out. Think of the thousands of kinds of flowers in the world. They are all flowers but each one is unique in its species. Remember that Uniqueness is part of God's creation.

Born to Be Distinct 

"God has placed within each person a vision that is designed to give purpose and meaning to life." Dr Myles MunroeOur world is filled with people who are busy but not ultimately effective or satisfied. They are doing much, expending time and energy, but getting little of value accomplished. Consequently, they spend their lives toiling away but never making headway. According to Oxford dictionary, A vision is the ability to think and plan the future with imagination or wisdom. A vision is what fuels you and gives you the energy to keep going. You're never satisfied until you accomplish it.

What is Vision?

Don't ever allow anyone to cause you to think of yourself as ordinary. If anyone makes you feel less than you are, just look in the mirror and say, "you original thing, you are one-of-a-kind, irreplaceable, original." There is no one else like you on the Earth. God made you that way because he wanted you to be perpetually rare.

Your not Ordinary

The poor man, the Rich man, the black man, the white man-every person has a dream in his heart. Your vision may already be clear to you or it may still be buried somewhere deep in your heart waiting to be discovered. Fulfilling this dream is what gives purpose and meaning to life. In other words, the very substance of life is for you to find God's purpose and fulfill it. Until you do that, you're not really living.
