You have journeyed through these reflections, prayers, and practices with one central truth: God’s will for you is joy. Not shallow happiness, not fleeting thrills, but the deep, abiding joy that flows from His presence and leads to a life of abundance.
Purpose is not a secret puzzle you must solve, nor a rigid plan that leaves you fearful of missing your step. Purpose is the daily choice to live in God’s joy, to love as Christ loved, and to let His Spirit guide you moment by moment. When you walk in joy, you are already in the center of His will.
From there, God unfolds your calling—sometimes in great leaps, often in small obediences. The details of your path may shift, but the purpose remains steady: to glorify God, to love others, and to live fully alive in Christ.
Do not wait for the perfect moment, the perfect plan, or the perfect confidence. Step forward now, because the Lord who called you also walks with you. Live joyfully. Live faithfully. Live on purpose.
Closing Blessing
Be strong in joy.
Stand firm in faith.
Walk boldly in the presence of the Lord.
Lift your head, for you are called and chosen.
Fix your eyes on Christ, and do not turn aside.
Live with love, with courage, and with holy purpose.
And let your life declare, in every word and deed:
I belong to God, and I live on purpose.
