I named my blog site The Next 40 days because one of my main characters, Winona Fairchild has decided that she wants to change her life in the next 40 days and she starts reading, The Purpose Driven Life. Although, I've known my purpose in life for many years, last year I was at a crossroad. It had nothing to do with why I was here on earth, but more to do with the choices I'd made over the last year, many of which were not the best. I needed a change or I felt like I was going to lose it so I started reading Rick Warren's book, The Purpose Driven Life. I asked my fiance' to be my partner and of course he said yes, but I ended up going about the 40 day journey alone. In less than 40 days my life changed drastically, and included a new job and relocation to a new state. I prayed and God heard me and answered. So my question to you is what is your purpose in life? Do you know? For knowing your purpose can truly make a difference in how you go about living day to day.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18472370-113072016964632036?l=cherylrobinsonauthor.blogspot.com'/></div>Cheryl Robinsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10426683706153908466noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18472370.post-1130714801457991692005-10-30T15:26:00.000-08:002005-10-30T15:26:41.456-08:00Cheryl Robinson was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan.
