Mission of My Life by Bl John Henry Newman

Mission of My Life prayer by Blessed John Henry Newman

God has created me to do Him some definite service. He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another. I have my mission. I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next. I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons. He has not created me for naught. I shall do good; I shall do His work. I shall be an angel of peace, a preacher of truth in my own place, while not intending it if I do but keep His commandments. Therefore, I will trust Him, whatever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him, in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him. If I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. He does nothing in vain. He knows what He is about. He may take away my friends. He may throw me among strangers. He may make me feel desolate, make my spirits sink, hide my future from me. Still, He knows what He is about.

Yes! I love this prayer. Everyone needs to know that they were created for a purpose and that God designed each and every one of us to do something incredible and unique. St Catherine of Sienna said,''If you are who God made you to be you will set the world on fire.'' We each have the power to change the world forever. Without one link the chain falls apart, without one puzzle peice the whole picture cannot be seen. Which makes abortion so sad.
