“You don’t have to know a lot of things for your life to make a lasting difference in the world. But you do have to know a few great things that matter, and then be willing to live for them and die for them. The people that make a durable difference in the world are not the people who have mastered many things, but who have been mastered by a few great things. If you want your life to count, if you want the ripple effect of the pebbles you drop to become waves that reach the ends of the earth and roll on for centuries and into eternity, you don’t have to have a high IQ; you don’t have to come from a fine family or a fine school. All you have to know are a few great, majestic, unchanging, obvious, simple, glorious things, and be set on fire by them.” –John Piper
The way to know what the supreme purpose for your life should be is, in a way, to know what the supreme purpose for God’s life is. If God has a purpose for all He does, and if He has created you within the design of a wise plan, then your life will find its best “fit” in that plan. True trust in the wisdom of the Creator is evidenced by a life yielded to the Creator’s design for our lives.
