Is it wrong for me to be searching for my purpose in life?

I wouldn’t say it’s a bad thing not to know exactly what your purpose is. It’s easy for us to reply and say that God wants us to love others and be Disciples for him, but that can mean different things for different people. Not everyone is gifted at being an effective evangelist. Some have gifts for art, science, music, teaching, or a variety of other endeavors which can bring glory to God. I’m approaching the hill and although I know God’s plan for me, I struggle at times with whether I’m in the right place and engaged in the right activities to fulfill that expectation.

I pray that you keep searching and seeking that knowledge. And tell us if/when you figure it out. God has quite a way of surprising us! :)
