How Will I Serve Mine?

This blog is written on the iPAQ 5500 and sent to my weblog site using a WLAN connection.

Last evening, our small group concluded its six-week study of Rick Warren's "The Purpose Driven Life." Except for Phil & Mary, the facilitators, Irene and I did not know who others were in the group.

We were the youngest two in the group. The others five couples were grandparents or in retirement. What faults, thoughts, inspirations, and hopes we shared in these past weeks transcended demographic identities. More important, our collective experience brought each of us a closer understanding of God's purpose for our being.

We have started as distant cousins in God's family. We are now a band of brothers and sisters. "In Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others." Romans 12:5 (NIV).

Surely, the many Biblical principles expounded in this purpose driven life book will be revisited. Having this book in a digital PDA format facilitates the reviews and evaluations of my life according to His purpose for me.

"For David ... had served the purpose of God in his own generation." Acts 13:36 (NASB). How will I serve mine?
