Christian-

Finding the Path and Purpose.

Godwin Thomas Abraham
Roll No. 44

We Christians, though the label stays, we never tend to be a true Christian. Often,
we doubt ourselves and God at a point when our life seems devasting. Some

end up by putting a full stop, whereas some move on believing it’s their fate.
But none looks up to our Heavenly Father, with utmost faith. This is where we

Christians fail in our Christian ministry. Finding our path and True purpose in
Christ is something which we need to hang on. God provides us many

paths. But the purpose of these paths remains unrevealed until and unless we
humble ourselves into the hands of our Heavenly Father. Few ways to

understand God’s path and purpose are illustrated below:

1. Walk in Faith – This terminology is quite familiar to all of us. But the true
meaning to this remains a doubtful one in times of sorrows. Walk in faith simply

means to have complete con²dence in God. No matter what the circumstances
be, God is the Helper who can make a way amid all. This one belief, without

doubt, helps us to ²nd our own path amid all the troubles.

2. Grow in Relationship – This simply has two elaborations. The ²rst
elaboration would be of our relationship with God through prayers, reading

bible, etc. The second elaboration would be of growing in relation with
our fellow being. Sometimes, God sends help through people whom we might

have never thought of. If Jesus can use only 5 loaves of bread and 2 ²sh to feed
the 5000, then nothing is impossible for him to pave a way through others.

Jeremiah 29: 11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you; Plans not to destroy

you, but to prosper you and give you a bright future.”

Let this verse be a stronghold throughout our entire Christian Journey.
