The "Not So Purpose Driven life"

why so much emphasis on purpose?
why do we all need to know everything.
the biggest questions ever are...
Who am I?
Where did I come from?
Why am I here?
Where am I going?

in fact The Used put it at the begging of one of their songs!

"Take It Away"
Life's greatest questions have always been: Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? Where am I going? You are about to see and hear one of the most significant messages given to us from God.

Listen!

the answers to these questions is simple! its God! (to all of them)
but us as humans, as Christians, we seek purpose.
in our jobs, in ourselves, in our friends, in our lives.
but do we not realize that we have purpose?
tonight was Phinehas's last show with their guitarist mike. at the last song, his last song with the band, he was laying on the ground, screaming out to God, thanking him for his experiences with Phinehas, for the fans, but more importantly, thanking God for a purpose, for Him... have you ever thanked God for God? cuz He made Him :)
it was touching. i know touching is a weird word to use about a hardcore show... but these guys are SO sold out for God! its amazing. after crying out to on the concrete, mike started singing Be Thou My Vision, and the crowd joined in. they where saying between songs, its not about the music. (ya, screw you Hot-Topic!) they said if you go to our myspace, dont listen to our songs. read our lyrics. they knew what their purpose is. its not to make cool music, its not to sell out, its not to have tons of fans. its to glorify God and God alone.
so often we get caught up in finding purpose in life, that we lose sight of our purpose in life. we are driven to find goals, missions, challenges. but the only goal we need, our mission in life, our great challenge is to be Gods. you may say "thats no challenge..." try it :) its harder than you might think.

being a sellout for God is not an easy task
but who said goals should be attainable?

one thing that Sean (the lead singer) said tonight between two songs,
was

"If your seeking anything other than God, its in vain."

what are you seeking?
