181. Practical Steps to Identify Your Unique Purpose

by Julie Lefebure | Jan 21, 2025 | Ramblings

Ingrained in each one of us is the desire for purpose. We long for our lives to have meaning and intention. Maybe you’ve questioned, like I have, why you’re on this earth and why God made you in the first place. Or maybe you’re wondering these now, today. Allow me to first say, you’re not alone and your not weird for wondering. I fully believe God wired us this way, maybe quite possibly, to seek Him in our unique purpose.

What is a calling, anyway?

We hear of people talking about their God-given calling or God’s calling on their lives. If we don’t know what that is, or even if we have one, we might begin to believe all sorts of scenarios, including maybe we’re just not special enough to be granted a calling from God. Believe me, I’ve been there and know that belief all too well.

I share about a time in my life when I was unsure about my purpose. I actually write about it in Chapter 2 of my book, Right Now Matters, titled “There’s God to Be More.” God, over time revealed to me my unique purpose. I’m still walking in it today.

I don’t have all the answers and never will, but I’ve learned that when we trust God and take small steps of faith, He reveals more of His plan as we go. Through my years of experience in walking in this calling, however, I’ve learned a few things along the way.

I share practical steps to identify your unique purpose and calling.
