Have you ever wondered, “What
is the meaning of life?”
Why are we here on earth?
.
The Bible tells us the answer to this question. In (Acts
chapter 17) when the apostle Paul was in Athens, Greece about 2000 years ago, he spoke to a
group of people, who wanted to know God, and told
them:
"The
God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and
does
not live in temples built by hands. And he is not served by human hands, as if
he
needed
anything, because he himself gives all men life and breath and everything else.
From
one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth;
and
he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should
live.
God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him,
though
he is not far from each one of us.
'For
in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets
have said, 'We are his offspring.'
"Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the
divine being is
like
gold or silver or stone--an image made by man's design and skill. In the past
God overlooked such ignorance,
but
now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For
he
has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has
appointed.
He
has given proof of this to all men by raising him from the dead." (Acts
17:24-31)
The purpose of us being here on earth is to seek and find
God. God has a
plan and a purpose for you and your life. According to the Scriptures, God has
determined the times and the exact places you should live so that you might
search for Him and find Him. It is no accident that you are reading this right
now.
For
I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD , "plans to
prosper you and
not
to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me
and
come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me
when
you seek me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:11-13)
