Having a Vision

"Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he" (Proverbs 29:18 KJV).

After affirming this Bible verse, I realize the importance of having a vision to strive toward. That having no vision of where you want to be can be destructive.

Having a vision is like self-programming yourself to strive for something that you wish to attain. It gives you something to live for, a purpose.

Not having a vision can lead you into trouble, since you will be easily swayed by outside influences. You will be like a ship without a sail or rudder, tossed about by the waves of the sea, directionless.

By nature, we are all purposeful beings in need of a vision to strive toward. Having a vision is the key to hope, happiness, and why we exist.
