What is the purpose of my existence? For what purpose was I created? Why did God make me? Who am I existing for?
These are the questions I am asking myself as I realized the truth in this discussion. The Bible has opened my eyes to a costly truth.
It is not good that we live our lives without reflecting on issues like this. If the purpose of a thing is not ascertained, misuse will be inevitable. In the same way, if the purpose of a life is not known, that life will certainly be misused. To avoid living a useless life, we must know what is the purpose for our lives.
Everything made exist for the purpose of the one who made it. The chair exists because someone made it. The same wood that was used in making the chair could have been used to make a table. So that chair finds its existence from the purpose of the one who made it.
We are existing for the purpose of God who created us. We are not existing for our own purpose. The purpose of God is what is our purpose. When we are living, we should live according to the purpose of God for creating us.
Ephesians 2:10 (KJV) For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
The purpose of God for our lives is to do good. We should not forget that. We are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works.
