Purpose

Purpose is on my mind as I wake up and begin reading in the scriptures.  Em said she felt a greater sense of purpose once Beckett and I both were put in isolation (by her mind you).  I know the Lord has a purpose for me, am I living up to it as He would have me? 

I read in Alma today a little about Alma's purpose. When his purpose on earth was done, he knew it.  He went to his children, told Helaman what the Lord commanded him (for he had a little secret revelation to be told), and then blessed them all before disappearing.  The account says they assume he was taken up into heaven like Moses was.  The point taken by me is that Alma was very in touch with his appointed purpose from the Lord. Enough so that he knew when his mission was complete and when he was approved to conduct a handover (with Helaman assumedly) and finish his term.  So today I'll be thinking more about my purpose of the day. I've prayed to the Lord asking that he reveal it to me for the day, I'll be listening for His answer.
