Uniquely particular purpose
OUR OWN UNIQUELY PARTICULAR PURPOSE
God places each of of us here, now, for some uniquely particular purpose. In so doing, God invested us with the intelligence, sensibilities, aptitudes, the interactive ecology, human and other, and environment to execute, and to fulfill that purpose. That unique and particular purpose is one each creature of creation is invested with, whether fish, or birds, or stars, or microbes, magnetism, gravity, chemicals or light. Our duty and mission as mankind is to discover that purpose and to carry it out to completion. That is our true alms-giving to God. We need not let the left hand know what the right hand is doing, teaches Jesus in Matthew 6. Instead, when we find our uniquely particular purpose, we must tell no one; instead we must sell all that we have and buy that field wherein our secret treasure, our particular purpose is hiding!"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field." Matthew 13:44
