48 Days

Well, it is 10:15PM on Tuesday, September 01, 2009. I had started to read the book “48 Days to the Work You Love” by Dan Miller about two months ago and really enjoyed what I had read, but I only got to page 30 and just haven’t picked it back up until tonight.
Now, Miller wants you to take 48 days to discover your purpose. 40 days is, obviously, a significant amount of time to God. (It rained 40 days and 40 nights on Noah, Moses was on Mount Sinai for 40 days, Jesus was in the desert for 40 days fasting etc.) Miller adds 8 extra days for Sundays and a few Saturdays. I thought to myself, since it is the first day of the month, what better time to start this study and really focus on it, and I will record most of my thoughts here. I will start today, so that will give me the finishing date of October 18th.
I will be praying that God will reveal something significant to me, and that I will see what my purpose in life is, maybe not the whole picture, but hopefully a small glimpse.
