Purpose Driven Life Seminar - Purpose No. 3 - Shrine of the Our Lady of Mercy, Novaliches, Q.C. - May 30, 2015

3. It’s not about you.
The purpose of your life is far
greater than your own
personal fulfillment, your
peace of mind, or even your
happiness. It’s far greater than
your family, your career, or
even your wildest dreams and
ambitions. If you want to
know why you were placed on
this planet, you must begin
with God. You were born by
his purpose and for his
purpose.

4. Purpose No. 3

5. From the very
beginning,
God’s plan has
been to make
you like his
son, Jesus.

6. MY 3rd PURPOSE IN LIFE IS
TO
Discipleship
is the process of
becoming more like
Christ. God doesn’t just
want you to know about
Jesus, he wants you to
BECOME LIKE JESUS.

9. God doesn’t want you
to become a god; he
wants you to become
godly – taking on his
values, attitudes and
character.
[We] � will never
become God, or even a
god. That prideful lie is
Satan's oldest temptation.

12. RESPONSIBILITIES IN BECOMING LIKE CHRIST
First, we must let go of the old ways.
Once you decide to get serious about becoming like
Christ, you must begin to act in new ways. You will
need to let go of some old routines.

16. Second, we must change our thinking.
RESPONSIBILITIES IN BECOMING LIKE
CHRIST
Behind everything you do is a thought. Every behavior
is motivated by a belief, and every action is prompted
by an attitude. God revealed this thousands of years
before psychologists understood it: “Be careful how you
think; your life is shaped by your thoughts” (Proverbs
4:23).

21. RESPONSIBILITIES IN BECOMING LIKE CHRIST
Third, put on the character of Christ by
developing godly habits.
Habits - good or bad, define who we are. Aristotle
had this to share about habits: “We are what we
repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a
habit.” Habits are acquired behavior, which are
repeated over and over and over.

22. Habits of holiness or spiritual disciplines as they are
sometimes called, are not, however, the mere product of
human strength and desire. Godly habits are initiated,
carried on, and matured through the sanctifying work of
the Spirit who indwells us. They are the fruit of the Spirit,
but they are worked out in our lives—not as erratic
psychological and sudden impulses, but growing, settled
dispositions and attitudes, showing forth and leading to
the transformation of character. We are to cooperate with
the Spirit in striving to see these traits developed in us.

41. Which circle best represents your life?

43. TANONG NA DAPAT PAG-ISIPAN:
Upang ako ay maging Kawangis ni Kristo, alin aspeto
sa
aking buhay ang kina-kailangan kong hingian at
gamitan
ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu Santo upang mabago?
