Your Destiny

 Your destiny in life may not be a specific street address. Your destiny in life may have nothing to do with standing beneath the Eiffel Tower in Paris, standing on top of the Statue of Liberty in New York City, or walking along the top of the Great Wall in China. Your destiny in life may not have anything to do with being in a specific place at a specific time. Your destiny in life is more general than being in a specific place at a specific time and also more difficult. It is generally easy to be at a specific address at a specific time. It is a great deal more difficult to fulfill your destiny in spiritual terms. Your destiny from the time you are conceived until you leave your earthly body is to be a child of God. We do not always want to fulfill our earthly destiny because being at our home address is so much easier than being a child of God. To get to a specific street address at a specific time may be difficult, but in most cases, getting to the street address is humanly doable. To be a child of God is a great deal more difficult because to be a child of God we must renounce part of our humanity. To be a child of God we must turn away from the part of our life that makes us a sinner and turn to God.
