Your Question:

How can I still find purpose when I'm no longer working?

Answer:

As I reflect on finding purpose when no longer working, I'm reminded that my purpose in life is not just about being rid of depression, but about living a life that's in sync with God's will. It's easy to get caught up in focusing on our own desires and plans, but it's essential to remember that God's purpose for us is often bigger than what we can see or understand. I've learned that persistently seeking and keeping on seeking is a continuous effort required to find and live out God's purpose.

When I was struggling with my own faith and depression, I found it helpful to focus on Jesus and His purpose for my life. By thinking about His purpose all day, I began to apply faith to all my tasks and live by faith. It's not about achieving a specific goal, but about staying calm, faithful, and unconfused in the midst of life's turmoil. I've come to realize that God's purpose for me is to depend on Him and His power now, and that my vision of His purpose is often limited by my own narrow perspective.

To find purpose when no longer working, I recommend developing a daily life plan that gives you focus and direction. This plan can help you stay on track and continue to serve the Lord with a grateful heart. It's not about just going through the motions, but about serving the Lord because you want to, not just because you have to. By making a list of practical things to carry out your life plan, you can begin to see God's purpose unfold in your life. As I've learned, a life plan can help develop your faith in God and give you the focus you need to make a meaningful impact in the world.
