PURPOSE AND DREAMS

PURPOSE AND DREAMS
There has been a great confusion about purpose and dreams, so many writers took them both to mean the same while some who try to differentiate them end up making the whole thing most complicated, this being the fact that some write out of feelings or out of experience but not as a result of thorough study about it, it is quite simple to some other writer to quickly give the definition of purpose and dreams but never bother about who is responsible for the fulfilling of them both, but some who bother end up saying that we are all responsible for the fulfillment of both, this gave the reason for this writing, to clear the burden and worries in the mind of many about purpose and dreams and to whom the responsibility of each is vested upon.

In this part I will go straight to give a simple straight forward definition to them both so I don’t get to bother this page over much writings as been the fact that there already exist so much definition of purpose and dreams of which my may or may not be much different from.

Purpose is what God created you for, what God want you to become, while dreams is a mental picture of what you want to become, sometimes they both agree and some other times don’t. Purpose can be revealed to its subject and as well may not be revealed, the decision to reveal it or not is soly for the ONE who gave the purpose, in other to make you understand the difference between them both I would like to give this illustration;

The sole purpose why mobile phone manufacturing company produces phone is to be able to send and receive information of any kind, be it browsing with it, call or send text messages with it. Despite the fact that there is game inside the phone but it is not met for games (in fact our old men and women understand this better). But the buyer of the phone has the choice or will or can decide to use it for games only (like buying it for your children for games purpose), but he cannot access the game without inserting a sim card inside the phone, so before he can access the game he must insert a sim in it, and the moment he insert the sim a message must be delivered to that phone by the sim network for activation, and the moment he receive that message the purpose of the phone has been fulfilled irrespective of what the buyer will continue to use the phone for (games).

Therefore, the main difference between purpose and dreams is that purpose does and cannot die and must be fulfilled but dreams may die without being fulfilled and that is while a writer once said that the richest place on earth is the grave because there lies abundance of unfulfilled purposes, now there may be so many questions in your mind now as to purpose being from God and as well a must “fulfilled thing”.

You may ask, what about a baby that is born within the next seconds/minutes is dead, what about a young talented man who struggle for life/survival at the verge of his breakthrough he end up dead, does this means that God is wicked and what is their purpose? Now everything that happens on earth does not take God for a surprise, and all things that God created He has a purpose for it, and as well He wants to show forth His power, and to teach men to give Him praise and trust completely on Him, a child that is born and within the next minute is dead, maybe God wants to teach the family how to handle pains and how they can keep their trust on Him, so the purpose of the child is to bring pain to the family to see how the family will react in such pain and as well the people around them, sometimes when such family hold on still on God, end up victorious by having other wonderful kids who will restore or bring back their joy, a young man in his limelight gave up dead could be a lesson to the whole world that to God only has the power to turn things around within a twinkling of an eye.
