1001 Life Gains Meaning Through Fulfilling Your Mission
I
Every single person has a mission in this life,
and if they don’t live for their mission,
then there is no value to them living this life,
there is no value to them living this life.
If there is no value to you living life,
then your life is worthless, is worthless.
You will live life as a walking corpse; you will not deserve to live.
If you don’t fulfill your responsibilities and accomplish your mission,
then you don’t deserve to enjoy everything God gives you.
What does this signify?
It signifies that God can take everything away from you at any moment.
God can give, and God can take away—this is how it is.
II
Your mission is to cooperate with God’s work,
to spread God’s gospel and new work,
while at the same time understand the truth and attain salvation—
this is most joyous.
Nothing in human history has been more joyous or more fortunate than this.
Nothing is more important than this;
this is the greatest thing in life,
and it’s the greatest thing in human history.
If you cast off your mission and dispense with your duty and responsibilities,
then your life will be without value,
and living will have no meaning for you.
III
Since God gave you this mission,
you should bear the responsibility for spreading the gospel,
bear testimony for God to others,
and fulfill all the responsibilities man should fulfill;
you should dedicate the truth you understand
and your experiential testimony.
Then everyone can benefit, and God will be satisfied, God will be satisfied.
What people are capable of are in fact just these things.
As long as you can suffer a little, pay some price,
and crave comforts a little less, then you can achieve these things.
Then, your outcome will be different from that of the nonbelievers,
and you will be measured differently by God—this is so rare!
God gives you this blessing,
and if you don’t know to treasure it, then you are outrageously rebellious.
IV
Since you’ve chosen this path of faith in God,
don’t be in two minds about it,
but instead single-mindedly quieten your heart and do your duty well.
Don’t be left with regrets.
Even if you can’t right now attain the stature of Peter
and you can’t perform the righteous deeds of Job,
then strive to perform your duty up to standard,
strive to perform your duty up to standard.
It means to perform your duty
in accordance with the truth principles and the arrangements of God’s house,
without slacking off,
without harboring any hidden motives or holding anything back,
but rather doing everything you can—
then you will be performing your duty up to standard,
you will be performing your duty up to standard.
