Purpos3ful Pathway Intro:
Uniqueness / Wabi Sabi:
Psalm 139:13-16
13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
You are a masterpiece.
- You carry a piece of the master. He blew breathe into our lungs and they have will not stop until we die. Not only the breath, also the ability to think and imagine, and then execute.
- Masterfully Crafted. As before, we are crafted, formed, and verified before time began.
- Masterfully Branded. You are branded with God’s character, nature, and intent.
- Character: Holy, Set Apart -We have our own individual identity
- Nature: He cannot lie - Most of us have a degree of integrity
- Intention: Goodwill - We want to good for those we love, and even others to a certain degree.
We are unique: A concept of Wabi Sabi is this: accept yourself for who you are. There is perfection in the imperfections, God knew what He was doing when he made you, so you might as well be yourself, because everyone else is already taken.
Wabi Sabi is a mindset shift that looks at the imperfections of things and finds the beauty in it. There is greatness in you being the only one. You can be the only you that can reach the people only you can. God said that you are fearfully and wonderfully made, and that is no mistake. Your mistakes and quirkiness are your character, and the sum of experience has created you to be were you are for such a time as this. You are here to turn hurts in to healing, applying your experiences as a balm to others so they won’t have to suffer through the same things.
Present / Ichigo Ichie:
“Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.”
Ephesians 5:15-17 NIV
From wikipedia, “chi-go ichi-e (Japanese: 一期一会, pronounced [it͡ɕi.ɡo it͡ɕi.e], lit. "one time, one meeting") is a Japanese four-character idiom (yojijukugo) that describes a cultural concept of treasuring the unrepeatable nature of a moment. The term has been translated as "for this time only", and "once in a lifetime". The term reminds people to cherish any gathering that they may take part in, citing the fact that any moment in life cannot be repeated; even when the same group of people get together in the same place again, a particular gathering will never be replicated, and thus each moment is always a once-in-a-lifetime experience.” Trying to translate it, you will get that ichigo” means “one life or time” and “ichie” means “a one-time encounter or meeting.”
Meaningful Worth Living / Igikai-kan:
“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.”
Proverbs 29:18
Finding the reason for being, and allowing that to be the source for a long, fulfilled life.
Everyone and everything has purpose. We are all at our peak existence when we our serving and doing what we are designed to do.
- A chair was designed to be sat on. When it constantly used as a ladder, the pressure on the legs make it weak and wobbly, eventually breaking. if you have a pulse, then you have a purpose.
- The meaning of life is to live a meaningful life.
These will start you on your vision. The vision is the end goal. It is the fuel to keep us going to get to the vision. The path is blurry and dark, rocky and dangerous, but also the fulfilling and the most rewarding. He does not show us the whole path because we would not be able to fathom the greatness and give up immediately.
So we MUST have a connection to God and a connection to others.
