I believe that living authentic and lasting purpose requires three things.
First, do something difficult.
Second, make a sacrifice for someone else. You have to live outside yourself and be willing to embrace and even get comfortable in adversity.
And finally, lasting purpose can be found in meaningful relationships inside our community.
So here's my question for you, are you REFINED by the adversity in your life, or are you DEFINED by the adversity that you face?
We must embrace and even run to adversity and to the challenges in our lives.
In my opinion, adversity builds value and character in our lives, and until we experience heartache, disappointment, and pain, we are not properly equipped for service.
Keep coming forward.
