These are incredible times to live in when people are just in their element in so many ways; from fashion to entertainment...it's all happening here in South Africa.
Well, hoping that you are doing alright; whether, like myself, you find yourself working during these holidays or chilling on the beach. It's good to be alive and we should always thank God for His Everlasting Love.
Without delay, let's continue.
On the last blog post, we began 'The Purpose Formula' and shared a bit about how Frustration is one of the greatest indicators of what our purpose is on earth.
I also shared a bit about what was and is still bothering, or frustrating me. You remember Hlogi, my friend from TPOP 8.5 and 8.6 right?
We had a discussion again about this matter of serving Jehovah God in times like these and what frustrates us the most.
He shared some of his own frustrations and mentioned how so many churches' administrations were letting them down, how personal growth in the church was so limited as well as how innovation among the youth was diminishing, particularly in Christian circles.
Another friend whom I met recently at a youth gathering in Soshanguve Block GG, by the name of Ofentse, spoke about his own frustration regarding how backward their church is in terms of technology. He alluded to the lack of infrastructure within the church to deal with development of the people therein outside of preaching and reading The Word.
Another of my friends out in Centurion, Refilwe, shared another frustration but specifically about me. She said to me that she wants to see the organization that I have been talking about for years, get on its feet and do what needs to be done for God. She was quite clear about that.
All these frustrations are pointing every one of us in the direction of our purpose and because we are the ones seeing the gaps and the lack therein, low and behold, we need to fill them...Not So?
How then do we deal with these frustrations and where do we go from here? [To Be Continued...]
Here it is...
It is critical to identify the things that frustrate us, especially when those frustrations are continuous and don't want to leave us.
