FULFILMENT
The fulfilment of life's purpose is not a single event.
It encompasses a build up of daily experiences from the day a man discovers his purpose, till he complets it.
Intense anxiety, discouragement, indolence or indifference may set in when we perceive the fulfilment of purpose as a futuristic occurrence, one that should happen at once, rather than a step by step progression of an assortment of experiences over time.
When we see, hear or read about folks who, in our thoughts, fulfilled their purpose, we may be needlessly discouraged or harmfully zealous if we see only the end, without possessing sufficient knowledge of the process.
Do not be anxious about fulfilling your life's purpose.
Do not be discouraged.
Find your purpose.
And when you do, be conscious of the fact that you have started to fulfil it from the moment you found it; and every experience that sprouts from your deliberate and progressive walk on the path of your life's purpose is a part of it's fulfilment.
If the purpose you seek to fulfil is divine, your progress on the path of it's fulfilment can only be measured accurately by the One who has called and sent you, and not by any standard upon which humans compare themselves or another with other humans.
"Welldone, good and faithful servant" is a testimony of having walked on an accurate path with an assortment of experiences, in fulfilment of one's purpose. It is the final approval of every step taken on the path of fulfilment; it is a reward for the process.
