Fulfillment – Part 1 (of 3) or If I Had A Million Dollars…

Faith & Church · October 31, 2007

How can you find true fulfillment? I have been asked and have asked that question many times. I have also received many different answers to that question. In the end, I have found that the simplest answer is usually the one I needed.

For the purpose of this series of posts I am going to operate on the assumption that all who read this are devoted followers of Christ. I say this because I feel like that is the foundational step to fulfillment. Not having the will of God as the first priority throws the rest of my thoughts off course, as well.

Here is one of the answers that I have been given.

Just ask yourself, “What would you do if you did not have to worry about finances any longer?”

The point is that once you can answer that question, you will have found the thing that you are supposed to do with the rest of your life. You will have to take some time to get past the extended vacation, world travel, and shopping sprees till you get to the thing that you would give your life to.

God has given you unique gifts, skills and desires. What would you do if finances and your daily job weren’t an issue?

    Must… resist… the urge… to give the Office Space answer.

    Seriously, though– there are a lot of things I’d want to do, mostly related to poverty & homelessness.
