What is our purpose in life? It is to know the Living God and to do His will. We spend all our lives wandering around in this life looking for purpose. All the things in life that that world says are so important are really worthless. Vanity, pride, seeking riches, wealth, worldly wisdom, all are worthless if a man never comes knows Jesus and His saving power. I am not talking about a "form of godliness" (religious motion and activity), but a real saving knowledge of who He is and who He is in you. The World says you have to be "weak" to serve the Lord. The World says the things of God are to be lightly esteemed. But quite the opposite is true. Satan has reversed the price tags on everything in life. The things that are not very important to eternity, Satan says are important. And the things that are eternal, Satan says they don't matter.
Job in the Bible put it this way, "Oh, that I might find Him." Paul put it this way, "Oh that I might know Him..."
Only real men will lay down their lives for what the really believe in. Jesus said, "Unless you deny yourself and lay down your life for Him, you will have no part in the Kingdom." I need to know Him, with such intimacy and depth, that our love would surpass that of a woman. He is that best friend that sticks closer than a brother. Be blessed
