Identity and Purpose

By Pearl Seale

There is a reason for the existence of every single person in this world. It doesn't matter where you come from or what your history is. Growing up, I always knew there was something special about me; I knew I was not like most children; I knew my
destiny was different to that of everyone else around me and you probably feel the same too. It's not a coincidence, it is because you really are different. It is vital to know the significance of identity and purpose in order to live a life of fulfillment in every assignment that God, the Creator, has for you.
Identity and purpose is what sets you apart from everyone else. At times we might look like we are doing the same thing, but it is purpose that separates us. You find peace and gain confidence when you have an encounter with yourself ; when you come face to face with yourself then learn to accept and appreciate who you are. No matter what imperfections and qualities I have, I wear the crown of being myself, knowing that He who has begun a great work in me will complete it.

It is never about the current situation but rather where you are headed. This book serves to help you realize that you have a purpose and it is necessary to be bold in your identity to fulfill it.

Introduction

I believe there is a reason for the existence of every single person in this world. It doesn’t matter where you come from or what your history is. Growing up, I always knew there was something special about me; I knew I was not like most children; I knew my destiny was different to that of everyone else around me and I know you probably feel the same too. It’s not a coincidence, it is because you really are different.

It is vital to know the significance of identity and purpose in order to step into your calling and fulfil every assignment that God, the Creator, has for you.

Identity and purpose is what sets you apart from everyone else. At times we might look like we are doing the same thing, but it is purpose that separates us. I found peace and gained confidence when I encountered myself; when I came face to face with myself and learnt to accept myself as I am. No matter what imperfections and qualities I have, I wear the crown of being myself, knowing that He who has begun a great work in me will complete it. It is never about the current situation but rather where you are headed.

If you have not found your identity and purpose I pray that, as you read this book, you will be inspired to find out what it is and that the good Lord will reveal it to you.

Happy reading….

Ch. 1

Let there be a pearl

I was born in a village called Jamela, in Limpopo province, South Africa. For some reason I cherish the fact that I was a home delivery. My mother says that while my father and uncle went out looking and asking around for people with cars to help get her to hospital to give birth to me, she couldn’t keep me in anymore; I wanted out. It is hard to get an ambulance to arrive on time in a village, so a private car is always an option. When my father and uncle got back with a car; lo and behold… there was a baby girl! It was my time to
