Are you MADE FOR NOTHING?

Welcome to Sublime Paradigm!

Perhaps, you are one of those fortunate few who at an early age already came to a vivid realization of who you really are as meant to be. And since then, your life headed the path as defined and directed by such realization.

Little wonder, you are now making great difference in your vocation & avocation in life. Little wonder, many are looking up to you as their inspiration. Little wonder, you are enjoying life and living it to the full. Yours must be one of exceptional kind!

My personal case came a little later, that is, shortly after experiencing a crisis of faith in my latter 30s. My earlier vision then was not as vivid as when I was finally led to an in-depth and intense contemplation and introspection from my early forties to early fifties about who I really am, and what my “post-ordeal” self is meant to be.

By way of meditative prayer, I am pleased to share my vision with you, my friends, and with everyone who may relate to it and be blest, too:

I believe, dear Lord, You didn't make me for nothing. Yes, I fell short of Your Glory because of my transgressions.

“But, by Your Mercy and Grace, You intervened and restored in me Your Light and Life that make my being whole again.

“With Your Light and Life, You made me able to visualize and cherish the vastness of Your Glory.

“Within the vastness of Your Glory, You made me foresee the limitless possibilities of my becoming-to-be.

“Given now this unmerited Gift & Power of Faith, Certainty of Hope, & Greatness of Love at my disposal,

“I commit to embark on a decisive come-back to share Your Mercy & Love with as many as can be reached and touched for Your Honor, Praise, and Glory.

"For, indeed, right from the beginning You didn't make me for nothing.

"To You, dear Lord, be the Glory forever and ever, in Christ Jesus’ Name. Amen & Amen!"
