What is the essence of life? This is a very big question that most people find it difficult to answer correctly. I believe that the reason why some people may not really have an answer to this is because they have not been able to discover why they are here in the first place.
This image belongs to me.
Discovering purpose in life is very important and it will help one understand what he or she is doing here and how to do it. If this is done then you will find fulfilment in life and there will be no regrets at all. So many people live their lives everyday in regret and most times they wish that they were never born. To such people life is meaningless and they don't know why they are here on earth. But I know the exact reason why I am here and I will share mine briefly with the house.
MY PURPOSE FOR EXISTENCE
By God's grace I have been made to understand from the Holy Book that God created me so that I can know him, serve him and be with him when I am no more. This is just the summary of everything I will be saying here. Life is meaningless without God in it because God initiated life. When we discover that we need God, then everything about us will go along with his plans for us.
Secondly, I am also created to impact others positively for God. In this generation I have seen the good works of those who lived before us and how it has affected people for God. I have decided because of this that I can't cross from this life to the next if I have not helped people to draw closer to God and their lives get better. All these comes because I am aware of my reason for existing.
Lastly, I know for sure that God's purpose for bringing me here is so that I will know him and be with him at the end of my life. This is the ultimate of them all.
For this reason when I work or go about my business I do it in such a way that even when I am not there tomorrow people will remember for God and follow my examples.
