The meaning of Life
Our priorities
Most people focus their lives on fulfilling their
personal goals and ambitions. Our priorities tend to be
on things like- pursuing happiness, romance, money,
sport, travel, careers, accumulating knowledge,
families, fame and power and the like. These can all be
good things, but should they be the focus of our lives
? Should we be deriving the meaning of our lives from
such things ?
God's priorities
To understand the meaning of life we need to understand
something about our creator God and his intentions for
our lives.
God is awesome:
God created the world and everything in it; He is
present everywhere and observes everything; compared to
Him the might of the nations are like a 'drop in the
bucket'; He is so awesome that we can not comprehend
his greatness. God is so awesome that we should praise
and honour him.
God's plan for us:
God wants a relationship with each of us. God has given
us instructions on the best way to live, and God wants
us to love and obey Him.
This is what we were created
for - to glorify God, and to live in a relationship
with God forever. This is the intended meaning of
life.
