The Purpose of Life...
What's Life All About?
What is life
all about? With all the war, pain and trouble in the world, some people
think life is not worth living. For some of us, just getting out of bed
in the morning is a major struggle. But, it doesn't have to be this
way. Life can be very worthwhile. That is, if you use your life for
what it was intended. . .

Why Were You Born?
You Need to Know What
would you think of a person who tried to use a straw hat as a cooking
pot or a glass bottle as a hammer? What would you think of a person who
used up all his life before finding out its purpose? Until we put our
lives to the use they were made for, we are like the hat on the fire,
or the bottle used as a hammer. We destroy ourselves without finding
the satisfaction of fulfillment. God has a purpose and plan for your
life . He has a work for you to do on earth and has prepared a
wonderful home for you in heaven. You were born to fit into God's plan.
You Were Born to Be God's Child
|
Why is there so much Pain in the World?
|
You were
created to be His child, enjoy His love, and love Him in return.
Whatever else you do, if you don't have this fellowship with God, you
have missed the main purpose of life.

You
have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in
your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
(Bible, Psalm 16:11) |

You Were Born to Grow in God's Likeness
For you, a
child of God, life on earth is like a school to prepare you for
eternity. Your experiences are lessons to equip you for the part you
will have in God's kingdom. The problems and other things you suffer
now are to teach you patience, faith, and obedience. They are to help
you mature spiritually so that you will be more like your Heavenly
Father. Let God make you the dependable kind of person He can use both
now and in the world to come. You Were Born to Work with God You
were born when you were, where you were, and who you were so that you
could be a blessing to your family, your community, your country, and
the world. God wants you to be His partner and work with Him . He will
help you lead others to Jesus Christ and to a better life in Him. Ask yourself:
Does my life really please God? Do I accept suffering as an opportunity
to develop patience and character? Am I doing what I can to help
others? Do I live as though death were the end of everything, or am I
using my life now to prepare for eternity? Do I enjoy fellowship with
God?

For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
(Bible, Ephesians 2:10) |
Have I
started to follow God's plan in my home and community? Will you come to
God and ask Him to change you?
