July 15 2026: The reason you do not know your purpose in life is because of your pride!
Jul 14, 2026
The reason you do not know your purpose in life is because you are too crowded with pride, noise, self-freedom and self-independence!
What if the reason you cannot clearly see your purpose is not because God is silent, but because your heart is too crowded with pride, noise, and self-reliance?
In today’s Gospel, Jesus praises the Father because He has hidden these things from the wise and the learned, and revealed them to little ones.
That is powerful.
God is not impressed by arrogance. God is not moved by titles. God reveals His deepest truths to the humble, the teachable, the simple, and the surrendered.
Today’s message is clear: God reveals purpose to the humble.

What if the reason you cannot clearly
0:02
see your purpose is not because God is
0:05
silent, but because your heart is too
0:07
crowded with pride, with noise, and
0:10
self-reliance.
0:12
In today's gospel, Jesus praises the
0:14
heavenly father because he has hidden
0:16
these things from the wise
0:19
and the learned and revealed them to the
0:22
little ones.
0:24
This is very powerful because God is not
0:27
impressed by arrogance. God is not moved
0:30
by titles.
0:32
God reveals his deepest truths to the
0:35
humble, to the teachable, to the simple,
0:38
and to those who have surrendered.
0:41
Today's message is clear. God reveals
0:44
his purpose to the humble.
0:46
My good people,
0:48
welcome to today's
0:50
daily dose of motivation, inspiration,
0:52
and encouragement. Today is the
0:54
Wednesday of the 15th week in ordinary
0:57
time.
0:58
And you can get today's Catholic daily
1:00
mass readings at our website,
1:03
catholicreadings.org,
1:05
and the link is in the description.
1:09
In today's gospel, which is Matthew
1:11
chapter 11, verse 25 to 27,
1:14
Jesus praises the father and says, "I
1:17
give praise to you, Lord, father of
1:19
heaven and earth.
1:21
For although you have hidden these
1:22
things
1:23
from the wise and the learned, you have
1:26
revealed them to little ones."
1:29
This is one of the most beautiful and
1:32
challenging moments in today's gospel.
1:36
Jesus is teaching us that the things of
1:39
God are not discovered by pride.
1:42
They are not understood by arrogance.
1:45
They are not received by people who
1:47
think that they already know everything.
1:50
The mysteries of God are revealed
1:53
to those who come before God like little
1:57
children
1:58
with
1:59
are humble, dependent, trusting, and
2:02
ready to learn.
2:03
And this speaks directly to our lives
2:06
today.
2:08
Because we live in a world where many
2:10
people want to look successful,
2:12
intelligent, independent, and powerful.
2:15
Yeah.
2:16
People want to appear like they have
2:18
everything figured out.
2:19
On social media,
2:22
everyone looks confident.
2:24
Everyone looks blessed. Everyone looks
2:27
like they are winning. But behind the
2:30
camera, many hearts are confused. They
2:33
are tired, restless, and secretly
2:36
asking,
2:38
"Why am I really here on earth?"
2:40
Some people have degrees, but no
2:42
direction. They have jobs, but no joy.
2:45
They have money, but no meaning. They
2:48
have followers, but no peace. They have
2:51
knowledge, but no wisdom.
2:54
They have talent, but no surrender.
2:57
That is why today's gospel is so
2:59
important.
3:01
Jesus reminds us that knowing God is not
3:04
about showing off.
3:07
Knowing God begins with humility.
3:10
If you want to God to reveal your
3:12
purpose, you must first become
3:15
teachable.
3:16
You must be humble enough to say,
3:20
"Lord,
3:21
I do not know everything."
3:23
Yeah, be humble enough to say, "Lord,
3:26
show me why you created me."
3:29
You should also be humble enough to say,
3:31
"Lord, correct me where I am wrong."
3:34
And also humble enough to say, "Lord, I
3:37
do not want want to waste my time
3:40
chasing what looks important, but is
3:43
empty before you."
3:45
Because God created you for a reason.
3:48
You are not created merely to survive
3:51
another month.
3:52
Yeah, you were not created just to pay
3:54
bills at the end of every month
3:57
or to attend meetings or to scroll
4:00
through your phone and sleep exhausted
4:02
day after day after day.
4:05
God created you with meaning.
4:07
God created you with mission.
4:09
God created you to know him, love, serve
4:13
him, and use your life as a testimony of
4:16
his goodness.
4:18
But, here is the truth. Before you can
4:20
effectively effectively serve God you
4:23
must first identify and know why God
4:26
created you and for what purpose.
4:29
It's only after discovering that can you
4:32
be able to serve him using your
4:34
God-given talents, passions, skills, and
4:37
knowledge.
4:39
That is where humility becomes powerful.
4:42
Because the proud people copy others.
4:46
The humble people ask God for direction.
4:49
The proud look for applause. The humble
4:53
look for an assignment.
4:54
The proud chase status.
4:57
The humble chase obedience.
4:59
The proud say, "I know what I'm doing."
5:03
The humble say, "Lord, lead me."
5:06
And when you allow God to lead you, he
5:08
begins to reveal what he placed inside
5:12
you.
5:13
Maybe
5:14
God you God gave you the gift of
5:15
teaching
5:16
but you have been ignoring it. Maybe he
5:19
gave you the ability to encourage
5:22
but you have been silent.
5:24
Maybe he gave you creativity but you
5:27
keep comparing yourself to others.
5:29
>> [clears throat]
5:29
>> Maybe he gave you wisdom
5:32
through painful experiences
5:34
but you do not realize that your story
5:37
can help somebody else.
5:40
Maybe your purpose is hidden not because
5:42
God has not given it
5:44
but because you have not slowed down
5:47
enough to listen to him.
5:50
The little ones in the gospel are not
5:52
childish childish. They are childlike.
5:55
They trust. They receive. They depend.
6:02
And that is what many of us need today.
6:06
We need to stop trying to build a life
6:09
without God
6:10
at the center.
6:12
We need to stop measuring our purpose
6:14
only by salary, popularity, titles,
6:18
likes, or applauses. We need to return
6:21
to the Father and say, "Lord, reveal to
6:24
me what you created me to do."
6:27
Because when God reveals your purpose,
6:30
your ordinary work becomes holy.
6:34
A teacher begins to see students as
6:36
souls,
6:37
not just names on a register. Yeah? A
6:41
parent begins to raise children for God,
6:45
not just for exams and success.
6:48
A business person begins to serve with
6:50
honesty,
6:52
not to just chase profits.
6:54
A worker begins to do every task with
6:57
excellence,
6:59
not just for salary.
7:01
A content creator begins to use their
7:03
platform to inspire,
7:06
not just to attract attention.
7:09
That is what happens when purpose is
7:12
revealed by God.
7:14
And maybe you are listening today and
7:16
saying,
7:18
"I do not know why God created me.
7:21
I don't know what I was created for.
7:24
I have talents, but [clears throat] I do
7:26
not know how to identify them.
7:29
I want to serve God,
7:31
but I need clarity."
7:33
Don't worry. I can help you to identify
7:36
your God-given talents.
7:38
Just go to my DM
7:40
there and just
7:43
uh, write, uh,
7:44
there on the DM,
7:46
uh, write, "I want to discover my
7:48
purpose."
7:50
And I'll help you.
7:51
Because when you know what why God
7:54
created you,
7:55
your life becomes focused.
7:57
Your work gains meaning.
8:00
Yeah? Your gifts become tools of
8:02
service.
8:03
Your success becomes a testimony.
8:07
So, today, do not come to God with
8:09
pride.
8:10
Come like a child.
8:12
Come humble.
8:14
Come teachable.
8:15
Come ready, and say, "Father, reveal to
8:19
me why you created me, and give me the
8:21
grace to live that purpose for your
8:24
glory."
8:26
Well, my good people,
8:27
like always,
8:29
and I will always say this
8:31
over and over again,
8:34
never
8:35
make
8:36
it to the end of the day
8:38
without letting somebody
8:40
who has appreciated your work
8:43
to say to you,
8:44
"Thank you,
8:46
and may God you worship be praised and
8:48
glorified."
8:50
Yeah? Do your work with excellence.
8:52
Serve with humility.
8:54
Speak with kindness.
8:56
Carry your responsibilities with faith.
9:00
Let your life become a testimony
9:01
[clears throat]
9:02
that God is real.
9:04
That God is good,
9:06
and God is at work inside you.
9:09
And never forget to attribute all your
9:12
success to God.
9:14
Never say, "I made it by myself." Say,
9:17
"I made it through the strength, grace,
9:20
and providence that God gives me."
