It seems EACH OF US HAS A PURPOSE for being on the Earth at just this time and in just these circumstances. Yusef tells us that there is a perfect design for our lives.  The surprise is that before we were born into this world, we participated in planning the design.  How this occurs, or with whom, is a mystery, but it does happen and we do have input.  The design includes the time and place of our birth, the parents to whom we are born, our physical appearance, etc. etc..  All the details are carefully planned out.  In that design, or Life Plan, are the circumstances that will maximize the opportunity for each of us to accomplish the purpose for which we came into this world.

It might be good to read this slowly and carefully, or perhaps two or three times.  This is very “rich” text and there are lots of interesting insights here.

 YUSEF:

PURPOSE spans all lifetimes and all Universes.  There are specific purposes chosen for each lifetime, following on, or dependent upon, the previous lifetime, time in heaven, and special requests or agreements.   The purpose(s) chosen by each one are selected or accepted or chosen with the assistance of the wisdom workers.  This is not a ‘simple’ process but is complicated by and interwoven with the purposes of others, the ‘debts owed’, and many other variables.  Thus is each lifetime a treasure, a gift, an important segment in time. 

The purpose ALWAYS fits perfectly with [the] Soul and the personality chosen for the lifetime.  All has been carefully thought through to maximize the potential to accomplish the purpose(s) chosen.  The body you chose to inhabit was chosen for a purpose.  It is your vehicle for attainment.  You need this body and all that it is to attain your purpose for coming into this world, this lifetime.  The challenges you face in this body are growth producing.  It is an instrument, enabling you to learn and grow.  Nothing is coincidence.  When we speak of “body” it includes personality, mental ability, etc.  The challenge is to recognize the gift of present circumstance, and remain connected to the Source of Love.

ALL have tasks/jobs/purpose on the earth plane as well as throughout the Universes.  It is our “purpose” to communicate through these transmissions.  Through these do we offer the knowledge, advice, wisdom, and the joy of LOVE. 

God, however, has but one “purpose”—LOVE.  Thus does the purpose of each individual attempt to expand LOVE, each in its own way.
