How Important Is It to Have a Real Positive Aim and Goal and Purpose in Life?
It is important to set goals in life. It is crucial to have an aim and to go for that aim. Imagine drawing near the end of your life only to realise that you have had no real purpose in living. Since I was a young boy I have always tried to set goals although at the time I was totally unaware of what I was doing. I was setting goals by faith and that was before I became a teenager when I had no idea what goals and aims actually were. I knew where I had to go. I knew where I was going and I knew roughly what I had to do to get there and some twenty years later I arrived at the main aim, via many heartaches and mountains and valleys.

The Regenerate Power In God’s Good GraceWe must learn, as brothers and sisters in Christ, what it means to love each other. The Christian faith is nothing more complicated than this. In spite of many overtures to the theological – to argue Calvinism, Armenianism, Catholicism, and every other type of religious ‘ism’ – we are destined only for schism if we forget love for all machinations of knowledge. For by faith alone, we are nothing. And by hope alone we will be disappointed in the end.
