Without God I have no guidance. Without God I have no purpose. However, I know God, I love and praise God. God has bestowed upon me a voice with which to praise Him and love others. God has given me guidance so that I may follow a path that brings me goodness and love. God has given me purpose to share His love with the world through my love for others. Every word I speak every line I write, every speech I deliver, every class I teach, every meditation I write and lead, every hug I give, is filled with the purpose of fulfilling God's purpose in my life. I am confident enough to speak of God and my faith in public. I am courageous enough to wear a cross around my neck. I am bold enough to teach my children about our faith. But without God I would have none of it. It is all for the glory and honor of God that I do all that I do and that I am all that I am. I thank God each and every day for making me the person I am today. I am just the messenger spreading His message to the ends of my little corner of the earth. ***Copyright 2013 Lori Hadorn-Disselkamp*** ### Share this article [![Share on Facebook](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/facebook-24x24.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2013%2F11%2F03%2Fwithout-god-i-have-no-voice%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on Twitter](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/twitter-24x24.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2013%2F11%2F03%2Fwithout-god-i-have-no-voice%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2013%2F11%2F03%2Fwithout-god-i-have-no-voice%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Without%20God%20I%20Have%20No%20Voice) [![Share on Email](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/email-24x24.png)](mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2013%2F11%2F03%2Fwithout-god-i-have-no-voice%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail%20&body=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2013%2F11%2F03%2Fwithout-god-i-have-no-voice%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) ** #### About the Author ![CatholicMom Logo](https://www.catholicmom.com/hubfs/_catholicmom/logos/favicon-catholicmom.png) ### [Lori Hadorn-Disselkamp](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/lori-hadorn-disselkamp) Lori Hadorn-Disselkamp - mom of 4 teens/wife for 20+ years.
