Day 36
“I was made for a mission.”
Purpose Driven Life
Point to Ponder: Day 36
What is the mission for which we are made?
I use to say that we were made to get as many souls into heaven as possible.
In a way this is true, but I have grossly misunderstood the concept of the soul and heaven.
I thought the soul was the essence within the body but independent of it. I thus thought heaven was a place where our independent, disembodied souls go when we die.
But this understanding of souls and heaven is at best incomplete and more likely completely wrong.
