Question.....

Do you think that when we die God will tell us what His plan was for us while we were here on earth?

For example, will  God say something like "Hey - I created you to be _________ or do _________ - I'm sorry you misunderstood the plan."

Do any of us get the plan right, or at least kind of right before we lose our opportunity to execute the plan like we were supposed to? I think maybe pastors do, but only the ones who do it for real.

I'd like to find out someday what I was supposed to be doing all along, even if after it's too late, because at least then I'll know. At the moment, I feel fairly clueless about it, and don't know what direction to go in, except mostly forward.

It that it? We just go forward?

You are a father, and have a child you love. You have a plan for her life, and you want the best for her. Will you still love and support her when the plan does not look like you thought it would? The big difference is our Heavenly Father is all powerful and able and willing to finish what He is planning.

I'm not sure that we will care once we are finally face to face with the Lord.

He created us to be His children and to love him and love others. The rest is sort of details.

He has gifted us to have a role in the Body of Christ, but our job is less to do that than to walk with humbly with Him and do good as we walk. He accomplishes all the cool stuff through us.

What we're all supposed to be doing is loving Him and loving others. Loving the Lord means we trust him and obey him. When we do that, He leads us. The Bible actually talks very little about our vocations. Even the spiritual gifts aren't vocational - unless you can find a way to get paid for it :)
