Dr. Rick Warren, a renowned American preacher would tell us and would explain in his New York Times Best Selling Book entitled THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE that as creations and as sons and daughters of GOD, we have a purpose in life, and our purpose is to praise and please him.
Dr. Warren by way of bible verses would expound that as persons we can praise GOD by doing good in our job and by offering it to HIM, hence we are still praising GOD by becoming good mechanics, good cooks, good carpenters, good teachers, good soldiers, good politicians, good public servants etc. etc. and offer it all to him.
Now, the question is this, is the Philippine President purpose driven? Does his purpose in life really to please our MAKER? Do the extra-judicial killings that happen in the Philippine archipelago by way of his orders please GOD? Do the skyrocketing prices of commodities and the soaring taxes make him a good leader and thereby please GOD? Does the president's siding with a communist hegemon of the world please GOD when the latter stifles freedom of religion and promotes atheism?
If the answer to the questions I have propounded above would be in the negative ... then the president is not purpose driven. He may be purpose driven but the one that drives him to lead the country in the wrong direction is not GOD but his personal glory.
In relation to this, I am challenging the president to be PURPOSE DRIVEN before it is too late, I'm challenging him to change his leadership style and his policies which are inimical to the best interest of the people before he destroys everything, for if he destroys anything clearly his life would actually not be considered as a PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE.
