In Rick Warren’s mega best-seller Purpose Driven Life he famously begins the book with “It’s not about you.” While I understand his intention with this statement I think he should have begun with “It’s about you, however, it’s not just about you.”
Because I believe it is about you. If it weren’t about you, you wouldn’t be here.
You are not an accident.
You are here for a reason.
You have a destiny.
You have a purpose.
You have gifts and talents.
You do things that only you can do in the way you do them.
You and only you can leave your mark on the world.
So it is about you!
However, it’s not just about you. Because if it was just about you, you’d be:
Self-serving
Alone
Narcissistic
Empty
Unfulfilled
It’s about more than you. It’s about knowing you were made for relationships:
To love
To mentor
To learn
To serve
To create
To build
To dream
To work together
To change for the better
It’s about living for more than you.
For a bigger purpose.
For a greater cause.
For a deeper meaning.
For those who will become your legacy.
It’s about you knowing you are part of something much bigger than you.
You live in a universe.
Uni-verse means one-song.
Songs don’t happen by accident.
Songs are created by organizing notes into arrangements and patterns.
And so there is a Creator of the one-song.
You are an expression of the Creator.
You are a note in His symphony.
It’s about you!
It’s about you contributing to the one-song.
It’s about you playing your part to the best of your ability.
It’s about you lifting others up.
Its about you living the purpose God created you for.
It’s about you, the Creator, and the song becoming one.
It’s about you and now what you do is up to you.
