My purpose is to be God’s hands and feet when it comes to an Entrepreneur recognizing his or her need to come close to their creator if they want to discover their business’s higher purpose, thus resulting in the best possible brand that is presented to the world.

It really doesn’t matter to me if someone doesn’t agree with my purpose in life. My purpose is God-given and Spirit-led. This means I’m doing this all for an audience of one.

That doesn’t mean I don’t run things by my wife, my mentors, and my tribe of followers. I can get ‘confirmation’ and ‘refinement’ from other Godpreneur’s. But ultimately, only God will let me know when I’m successfully following my purpose.

Successfully identifying my entrepreneurial purpose now makes it easier to accomplish goals and succeed in other areas of my life. I have the drive, motivation, and backing of my God. That’s all I need.

The Bible says

What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? Romans 8:31 NLT

The only One whose favor we desperately need in our businesses is God. It doesn’t matter what any attorney, doctor, employer, employee, friend, or family member thinks about us if God is not for us. That’s because, without His favor, we have no chance for real success!

God is the ultimate measure of what’s real and what’s good for our entrepreneurial purpose. Yet so many business owners I meet with try to find contentment without Him even in the picture.

I remember leading my business before Christ in my life. The only purpose was to make money and build an agency so I could look cool. There was no heart behind it.

But those plans ultimately failed as I realized there is no true satisfaction in business without a relationship with God.

We Godpreneurs find our contentment in God, not in how others regard us. All the accolades in the world could never make up for hearing those words at the end of your life, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

Godpreneurs find our contentment in God as the ultimate measure of success in our business!
