Written by Mark Roberts, a contemporary author.
As you seek to clarify your purpose in life, let me encourage you to pay attention to where you have been fruitful in the past and where you are being fruitful in the present. Where has your work – either paid or unpaid or both – made a difference in the world? Where have you made an impact? Where are you doing so right now? Your answers to these questions may very well help you to discern your purpose in life… If you’re not sure how best to answer these questions, I’d encourage you to talk with a few people who know you well and who will make an effort to be truthful with you. They might help you see what you’d miss on your own.
Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth. [Genesis 1:28]
