Two kinds of people in the world

There are two very different types of people in the world.

The first important day of your life is when you are born and this happens to everyone. You can't choose the time or the place...but one day you just turn up. Maybe into a rich family, royalty even or maybe into difficult circumstances. Some people just live the life they have been given and this may be an easy life filled with comfort or it may be a difficult life marked by hardship and tragedy. None of this makes any difference to the type of person you are. That's because there isn't just one important day in your life.

There's the day that you were born... and then there's the day when you discover why. Everyone has a purpose, a reason to be here. But some people never discover it. Those who do live very different lives and are a different type of person to those who don't. So how do you find out why?

1. Develop a close relationship with God - He knew your destiny before you were born. He will lead you and guide you if you let Him - and you will discover your purpose.
2. Pay attention to what makes you mad. Your complaint can become your purpose. It might just be that you were put on this earth to put right the very thing that makes you angry.
3. Realise that you do have a destiny. Don't be afraid to dream and believe in those dreams if you think they are from God.
4. Be patient - you might have to go through a few things and learn a few things about yourself before you discover who you really are.
5. You might be thinking you are the exception - that everyone else has a reason to exist, but not you. You're wrong. There's only one of you. You're unique and there's something you were destined to do, a person you were destined to be and a dream that belongs to you. Believe it.

There are two kinds of people in the world - those who are just born, and those who know why they were born. Two very different kinds of people, two very different lives. One is just existing, the other has purpose and direction. One is common and one is rare. It doesn't take long to be able to tell the difference.
