Why do you think people try to discover their life’s purpose without turning to God, their creator?

I thought i have fulfilled the purpose of my life's existence, I thought I have planned my life so well cuz everything runs so smoothly. But being confused about purpose in life is not a bad thing. It is actually something that can awaken a desire to seek the truth about who we are and why we’re here.

It is hard—almost impossible—to explain the meaning of life without God, and that’s why everything starts with Him. God brings design and purpose to our existence. God has a plan that stretches beyond our history. God wants a relationship with us. That in itself gives us meaning.

Every human being who has ever lived has had questions about his or her existence. It makes a big difference where you look for answers. You can’t really know much about meaning in life without being willing to admit that “beyond the sun”—or outside our human experience—is a Being with a design and a reason for all that we see and experience “under the sun.”

Here’s something to think about: Do you think it’s possible that God created us hungry for the very thing He wants to give us? He created us to seek Him? If so, wondering about your purpose could very well be the most important thing you could do. If this is true, then wondering about your purpose is the first step in finding it.
