ENUMCLAW, Wash., Dec. 30 /Christian Newswire/ -- "Isn't there something more for me to do with my life?" The world is full of people who feel stuck in jobs that they hate. Anyone who has dropped their kids off at a daycare center staffed by teachers who originally dreamed of becoming actresses, hair salon owners or doctors, or stood across from a grocery checker who clearly wanted to be anywhere but serving customers knows that the results aren't pretty. Others have impressive careers that provide big incomes but leave them empty and unfulfilled at the end of each busy day.
Some might respond to their stories of disillusionment with, "You aren't supposed to enjoy your job. That's why they call it work." The truth is we were created to find fulfillment in work. Each of us was designed by God with a purpose. Once we find, develop, and live that purpose out we experience joy and a sense that we are doing what we were born to do. Instead of dragging ourselves out of bed for work each morning, we look forward to one more day of living the dream.
Daniel Ekhaifo, author of "Pursuing Your God-given Dream" is a Nigerian economist who is now pursuing his own God-given passions for writing. In the process he has created a tool to show readers the difference between dreams and God-given dreams, the latter being those that we were born to do. "I believe strongly in the fact that everyone has a purpose in life and must never embrace mediocrity," Ekhaifo says. "I have come to realize that people have dreams that they feel they were created to fulfill. When they discuss their dreams, their eyes get lit up. When they discuss their job/work, they seem downcast and burdened."
His aim in the book is to help people identify their God-given dreams and learn how to pursue them, knowing that once one finds that dream he or she can follow it and make a difference in our world. The possible result? One less grouchy store clerk and an opening at the local daycare center for a teacher who was created to care for other people's children.
