The importance of love in finding a life purpose

by Steve Marshall

Created on: May 01, 2008   Last Updated: December 03, 2008

Most people are always looking for, or hoping to discover their real life purpose, and perhaps they never realise the importance of love in this pursuit. You never really have to actually pursue, or even try to find your life purpose, because love is always bringing it towards you.

Most people never know what's driving them, but it really is always only love.

What is the importance of love in finding my life purpose?

Actually love should be your life purpose, and so love drives you towards your life purpose, and which is always back to itself. Many people are moving forwards in pursuit of their own goals, unaware that it is really love inside them driving them, relentlessly towards their real life purpose. Love has a way of focusing you in on itself, and love, itself, is the purpose of life. Your life purpose is also to love, and to be loved, and so to learn, and become wise in giving love, and knowing love intimately from a higher level of understanding it.

How do you find your life purpose? Do what you love, and your life purpose, will come then to you. When you start loving everything in your life, everything else then comes towards you, including of course your real life purpose for this life.

Our purpose is always to be ourselves, as a part of God's overall purpose, and to help God affect the whole by being our self, our true part in this whole. Our true part is our purpose.

How do we know this? Well, as I have just said, find what you feel that you love, and then start doing a little bit of that every day, until it builds purpose into you. Your purpose then, will take on life, as love continues to power it. And then you will become more masterful in this area, as the purpose becomes more masterful in you.

Truth contains all purposes within it. On the other hand truth should never be used to serve only your own purpose. This is manipulating truth, for your own particular purpose. For truth to support you, and to back you, and your
