What in the world am I here for? That is the question we all ask from the time we learn to speak and think to the time we are on our death bed. Many time it goes unanswered, or if it is somehow answered, it still can be unclear. We often ask the selfish questions over our existence. Who is our soul mate? What will be our life-time occupation? The question we ought to asking should pertain to the Almighty and his plan for us.
We need to remember that God has always thought of us before he had ever crossed our minds. There IS a reason and plan for why we are here, although many things crowd God's place, for example: careers/ambitions, hobbies, and even our spouses. God wishes for us to choose Him over all..
I know my role on earth and for eternity thanks to Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren.
The Purpose Driven Life is a 40-day spiritual journey that will answer that important question:”Why am I here”. I know that you will learn more about who you are and what you should be living for. Sure, it may take more than 40 days to completely get the guidance that you want but you will be reminded every time you pick up this book that God is there by your side.
You may not have ever been sure if you had a plan for your life. It isn't an accident that we are living, breathing, existing. There is a plan behind it all and the hand that guides it is the hand of God. There is a loyalty to embrace for our Creator.
It takes focus and discipline to actually DO what you are here to do. God cares about HOW we are as people, and not who we are as people which is topsy-turvey in today's culture. At least that is what I took from the book. I encourage you to read and find out more for yourself.

EXPOSED! Rick Warren Admits Membership In New World Order Group CFR
Rick Warren admits membership in good standing in Council on Foreign Relations ? CFR
WASHINGTON ? Rick Warren, the superstar mega-church pastor and bestselling author of ”The Purpose Driven Life,” had a Damascus Road experience last week ? and like Saul of Tarsus, one of the after-effects appears to be blindness.
Rick Warren - Member in good standing in CFR
Warren went to Syria and could find no persecution of Christians. He could find no persecution of Jews. He could find no evidence of extremism. He could find no evidence of the sponsorship of terrorism.
Despite the temporary loss of vision that prevented him from seeing any evil in the totalitarian police state, Warren’s hearing was apparently not affected ? for his ears were tickled by what he heard and apparently accepted lock, stock and barrel from the second-generation dictator, Bashar Assad, and his state-approved mufti.
But that’s not the story Warren is telling ? at least not in the official press releases he is sending out from Rwanda in response to my confrontations with him last week in which I accused him of betraying his own country in a hostile foreign land and of being a propaganda tool of the Islamo-fascist regime in Damascus.
In fact, after I called him out last week in my column, Warren e-mailed me claiming to have been misquoted by the official Syrian news agency.
”Joseph, why didn’t you contact me first and discover the fact that I said nothing of the sort?” he pleaded. ”The trip was a favor to my next door neighbor, had nothing to do with policy, and was done with the State Department’s knowledge ? who told us to expect exactly what Syria did ? a PR blast. I don’t pretend to be a diplomat. I’m a pastor who just gets invited places.”
I pointed out to Warren that WND had indeed attempted to contact him about his trip. No one from his Saddleback Church ever returned our calls the day the story broke.
”I’m sure since you were warned in advance by the State Department that you took the precaution of recording your own words,” I suggested in my response. ”We look forward to seeing the transcripts or hearing the recordings.”
I also asked if he could respond specifically to the words put in his mouth by the Syrian news agency. And lastly I suggested that he should have ”counseled with me, or other people knowledgeable about the Middle East before doing so much damage with your reckless trip.”
I really didn’t expect to hear back from Warren ? but, a few minutes later, I did, with an absolutely stunning retort.
He let me know he is a close friend of President Bush ”and many, if not most, of the generals at the Pentagon.” He also told me he did not tape anything while in Syria, ”because it was a courtesy call, like I do in every country.” Warren explained that he had also counseled with the National Security Council and the White House, as well as the State Department, before his little courtesy call for a neighbor.
”In fact,” Warren added, ”as a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and Oxford Analytica, I might know as much about the Middle East as you.”
He continued: ”I hope you’ll not choose to believe Syrian propaganda even though, as you pointed out at the start of your article, you’ve been wanting to criticize me for some time. In spite of your rush to judgment, I think you write great, insightful columns. You are almost batting 1,000.”
No sooner had I received this surprising response from Warren, I also got an e-mail providing a link to a YouTube video of Rick Warren in Syria explaining how great the Assad regime treats Christians and Jews and how Damascus ”does not permit extremism of any kind.”
Not one to let lies go unchallenged, I wrote back to Warren with a link to the YouTube video: ”If you didn’t tape anything, what’s this? Do you really believe Syria does not allow extremism of any kind? There are more terrorist organizations based in Syria than anywhere else in the world!”
It might be that Rick Warren, deep in the bush of Rwanda, never received those last questions, because he never responded ? at least not in the last three days.
He did, however, within minutes make sure the YouTube video he recorded independent of his meetings with the Syrian brown shirts was removed from the network. Vanished. Kaput. Sterilized. Cleansed. Stay tuned for more on Rick Warren’s ”Agenda-Driven Life” in the coming days ? sponsored, of course, by the Council on Foreign Relations. source ? Joseph Farah/WND

다른분들의 영어 수준이 다 높으셔서 그런건가보군요.
무슨말인지?~~우쨋든 워렌이 이단이란건가여?~
질문 드립니다.
릭워렌이...프리메이슨 CFR의 멤버라고 하니 충격적인데요...
그렇다면 그렇게 주장하시는 근거는...CFR의 회원명부를 보신 것인지...릭워렌 목사에게서 직접 진술을 청취하신 것인지...
아니면 신뢰할만한 목격자(또는 관계자)로부터 들으신 것인지...아니면 누군가의 저술에서 보신 것인지 궁금합니다.
저술에서 보신 것이라면 그 주장이 사실인지...검증이 가능한 것인지도 궁금합니다.
샌디에고 프리메이슨 홈페이지는 프리메이슨 홈피인가요? 그냥 프리메이슨에 대해 다루는 블로그의 하나에 불과한가요?
아래 위키 사전에 릭워렌이 CFR에 임명되었다고 기술되어 있습니다. 이외에도 그가 연사로 초빙된 단체들, UN, 다보스포럼,TED은 모두 프리메이슨 단체이며 그를 명사로 띠운 TIME과 NEWSWEEK도 프리메이슨 언론매체입니다. 그가 프리메이슨임을 확실히 하는 것은 종교통합운동을 하고 있는 프리메이슨 토니블레어의 종교재단의 고문으로 있다는 사실입니다. 위 샌디애고 프리메이슨 사이트는 프리메이슨에 의하여 운영되는 프리메이슨 사이트 확실합니다
