Created For A Purpose

Many people struggle with three basic questions in life: Who am I? Do I matter? What is my purpose in life? As a result, we may go through life restless, having no idea and wondering why we are here or what God has purposed for us. 
 
People generally will live out their lives in one of these three ways. First, through survival they seek just to exist. They may live without purpose, focus and hope. Second, through success they find happiness, wealth and fame. Finally, through significance they find God’s true purpose and make an impact through their lives in their world. God desires that we live our lives with significance. 
 
God’s purpose for our lives is far greater than our own personal fulfillment, our peace of mind or even our happiness. So what is God’s purpose for our lives? The easiest way to discover the purpose of an invention is to ask the creator of it. How then do we discover the purpose that we were created for? We have two options. First is through speculation. We can guess or theorize on it. Second is through revelation. This is where we turn to what God has revealed about life in His Word.
