The Purpose of a Life Vision

Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Habakkuk 2:2-3 Some of us wander from one thing to another our whole lives. We’re capable of so much more, but we have never clarified our purpose in life. An out-of-focus purpose cannot inspire us, but a crystal-clear lens on God’s purpose for us rivets our attention and gives us energy to keep going until we reach our goals. We need to write our life vision down in clear, compelling language so that it grips our hearts. A clearly written vision statement frees us from confusion so that we can “run” instead of wander, stumble, or go backward. A clear vision overcomes inertia and produces the inspiration to run toward our goals. But the fulfillment of the vision is in His timing, not ours. Seldom does anyone move in a straight line from the conception of a dream to its fulfillment. Far more often, we experience ups and downs, delays and disappointments. These, though, won’t stop us if we keep our eyes on our purpose and on the One who has given it to us. Do you have a clear, compelling personal life vision statement? I’d love to talk to you personally. For more on help I can provide and how you can reach me, check out… http://truthatlife.com/ or email me directly at curtis.songer@gmail.com

  1. Hello,

    Here you provide some information about Purpose of a Life Vision. It is similar to a traditional vision board a visual representation of your goals, which is creating a vision board to help you fulfil your life purpose, you will feel free and believe you have to choose one...

    1. The life vision I am speaking of is a conceptual vision of what your life will be like at some point in the future (assuming that your goals are attained). It is generally articulated and documented in a text format. It can be similar to a "traditional vision statement" from business. I am interested in learning more about the "vision board" that you mention.
