Crafting A Life Mission Statement Analysis
11.2 Crafting a Life Mission Statement
Mission is your assignment here on Earth. It is the set of activities that you are assigned to do in your life for others. In other instances it is referred to as your main task in life. This is linked to what Jesus referred to in Matthew 16 verse 24 [1] when He said “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me”. The cross is the burden you carry in life and you are the person assigned by God to deal with that burden. Your mission also defines the set of challenges you are presented with in life.
