Planting Seeds of Purpose

Daily Living

Live On Purpose, one of the Illuminated Living mantras.  Today, we find inspiration from rapper Common in an interview with Gayle King for CBS This Morning




“In 2014, I made my mind up that I wanted to plant seeds that would come into fruition. I put that in my vision, in my prayers, and in my thoughts.  The seeds I was planting… discovering what my purpose is, and really living in that purpose.” ~ Rapper, Common as told to Gayle King 

Are you looking to grow purpose in your life? What seeds are you planting to get you there?

  1. Discover God
  2. Discover Who You Are In Christ
  3. Get Started
  4. Press Towards The Goal
It is also important to rejoice in the success of others.  There is room enough at the table for all of us, and space for all of our gifts to shine. Recognize that you have a role in the big picture and work diligently in your purpose.


Common has been on the scene for quite some time.  It seems that this is his time to shine. We find encouragement in his story because of his consistency, dedication to purpose, and most of all his service to others.
