I once got lost in the mountains. When I stopped to ask for directions to the campsite, someone told me, “You can’t get there from here. You must start from the other side of the mountain!” It’s kind of the same with trying to figure out who you were made to be. You cannot find your life’s purpose by starting with yourself. That would be like wandering around on the wrong side of the mountain. You must begin with God, your Creator.
