The Word of God Speaks About Your Purpose

By Elaine Maxine Howell

The Word of God Speaks About Your Purpose""yes, what a fantastic book title. But to listen and to accept our purpose in life, we must learn to walk in peace with God, open our hearts, open our minds, and close our mouth. Yes, stop talking to hear the whispers of God's Word. By doing so, we allow God complete control to penetrate our thoughts and hearts with truth, strength, confidence, and peace. This is not a contest, so stop stressing and learn to rest your thoughts. Listen quietly for God's plan for your life and focus on doing your best to receive God's blessings. I wrote this inspirational book to inspire and to encourage believers, as well as nonbelievers, to diligently examine their relationship with Christ Jesus and to reexamine their goals""seeking God's provision for their lives. Our purpose in this life is to praise and worship God and trust that his plan for our lives is well narrated by God himself without any confusion or blemishes. The purpose of this book is to enhance my readers' faith and hope as they prepare their hearts to trust and to seek God""the author and the finisher of our lives. The purpose of this book is to encourage my readers to live in a Christ-like manner, seeking the kingdom of God by complete submission to God's law no matter what obstacles fall in their paths. Trust and believe that God will remove our enemies or any negative distractions. Trust and believe that God is righteous! Who are you listening to? What is God's Word saying to you?

Iwould like to share this special honorable tribute to my beloved, beautiful mother, Bernice Maxine Jones. Mom, although you have physically departed from me at age thirty-two, I can still feel the presence of your love deep in my heart. Oh, Mother, until we are reunited, there will always be tears in my eyes for you. I wrote this entire book with you in my heart. Although I’m fifty-three years old, I have never learned to live without you because you are the air that I breathe. God has truly blessed me with amazing nurturing memories of you. Mom, continue to rest in peace because soon we will all be done with the troubles of this world. Almighty Christ Jesus has you in his arms, and I have you in my heart. I love you, Mommy.
