Defining Ephraim D’Angelo

Scripture of the Day: Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy path. Be not wise in thine own eyes, fear the Lord and depart from evil. Proverbs 3:5-7

Song of the Day: I Just Want To Be With You By Chris Frank

I pose these two questions to myself today:
Who is Ephraim D’Angelo?
What do I think God’s purpose is for my life?

1st Question: Who is Ephraim D’Angelo

I am Ephraim D’Angelo raised by parents that were raised from childhood in the Apostolic Assembly, but backslid when they married. I was raised a hippie child only aware of what was exemplified by my parents moral attitudes. Since the age of seven years of age God took me, and placed me on a journey to find and obtain truth. I am a truth-seeker, with (I believe) the call and responsibility of a teacher, and a watchman.

I have yet to operate as a teacher as I believe I should. I have children, and I teach them but I am lazy and lack discipline. I lack the understand of how critical my role is in the lives of these young babes. I procrastinate everyday of my life to develop those necessary habits, and to focus and strengthen my mind in the ways of the Lord. This is an attempt at beginning a constant habit of study, self evaluation, and awareness. Ephraim D’Angelo is my pen name given to me by the man of God. Ephraim is also becoming a sense of my true heart being manifested in my very demeanor, attitude, speech, and countenance. Following are a few words I would use to define myself, although others that know me may use different words. I believe myself to be loyal, passionate, creative, sincere, articulate, obedient, impatient, procrastinative, caring, giving, co-dependent, foolish, ethical, teachable, reasonable, committed, insecure, frustrating, foresight, discerning, friendly, overbearing, longing (desire), stubborn, cleaving, and unrelenting.

2nd Question: What do I think God’s purpose is for my life?

I believe God’s purpose for my life involves more than just one particular purpose however as I begin to define these things in writing, I believe the end result will be a phrase already etched out in his word. I believe I am to grow spiritually into a tzaddik which is Hebrew for a righteous man. All my life’s journey is finally culminated to this realization. Once I am living in the realms of light, and walking in the ways of the Creator consistently and purposely I hope I will end up a productive tool in my masters hands.
