Ephesians 2:10 (NKJV)
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
Purpose: 1. the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. (Dictionary.com)
Everyone created by God has a purpose to fulfill, some have discovered theirs and are fulfilling it already, while many are not even aware they have a purpose to fulfill and some have deviated or are doing something else they were not designed to do.

In the parable of the the talents, the Master was pleased with the profitable servants. God has invested a lot in us and expects return.
I believe that everyday, we should seek the Lord to fulfill His purpose on earth, it will help us remain focused on the plan irrespective of the distractions around us.
Jesus was so focused on the assignment, He knew the purpose for which the Father sent Him to earth and was not distracted by the events happening around Him, His disciples actually thought that He had come to restore the kingdom back to Israel, yes but not in the way they thought it would be.
John 20:21 (NKJV) So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”
As the Father sent Jesus, so also has Jesus sent us, would we fulfill purpose?
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I thank you for creating me, I thank you for sending me into this world with a purpose, please help me to understand it and fulfill it, thereby bringing you pleasure.
Thank you Lord. In Jesus Name. Amen.
