A Purpose Driven Season/Life with God

     Looking back to my past few days and during class I there is a good question of..."What is God like?"
When we talked about the human machine, I was like...huh?  Well our notes say that when human individual drifts apart from one anoter or collide into each other and when things go wrong inside the individual.
     Talking about morality was interesting.  With individuals there is fair play and then there's harmony.  Tidying up is more of a personal aassessment.  My favorite part of looking into is made for or what our purpose is.
         -Our purpose in life is so important and essential to living.  When trying to figure out what our purpose is in life, we can't look to other people for that answer.  I've been learning more and more that I can't look to people to find my purpose in life but look to God.  Sometimes I still don't know what my purpose is in places or with people, but that's when we need to talk to God and ask him what the reason is. 
     **What I do know is that my purpose or mission here on earth, here at GMC, is to have faith, living my life for the one true God the Father, leading the example of Jesus Christ to show others to the Lord, building their faith through the seven fruits of the spirit, music, praising/praying, fasting and worshipping him.
   -Sometimes we really do need a day off, even if we don't think so (Sabbath Day).  Also what I learned from this past class is that we need to always have courage in order to do things in life.
   I know that i've sometimes had a problem with the nice or honest issue.  I always want to be honest in telling someone something but if it's going to hurt their feelings, I don't know which way to go.  People worry about their weight/ apperance, the way the lifestyle is.  Everyone should take a look at Proverbs 9.  And we all need to know that God is our LANDLORD!
    "He is responsible to me and i'm responsible to him."  We all need to be worthy Christians and it's so important."  Also we need to learn to value people more than things in life and more so God.  Some of the most valuable things in life can't be bought!"
Cardinal Virtues- prudence, justice, fortitude, temperance
   ~Key Hinge: prudence (common sense), temperance (abstinence), justice (fairness), and fortitude (guts) is so important to have.  Every person in the world should have these virtues and like the best to their ability that God gave them.
  ~Broken Hinge: are the truth that right actions done for wrong reasons and thinking God simply wanted us to have a set of rules just for a certain type of person.
      **There is this saying we learned in Leadership which is to follow your character ethic, not just personality ethic**
  *Also i'm really hoping to see that movie The Social Network because the movie looks so interesting.  What makes the trailor interesting is the fact that the guy in the movie is "socially awkward" but creates this networking site.  How does this make sense?  People need to learn however that our worth is not the internet, games or phones, but we live our life and what we do with that.*
