Knowing our “why” provides purpose and meaning and adds value to our lives. It will get us through the difficult times and make the good times far more enjoyable. Most importantly, if we are to have a life of meaning and significance, if we are to flourish, we need to know why we are here. It would be a tragedy to go through life not knowing why we were put on this earth.
To understand our why, we start with God. God is our Maker and Creator. God has set eternity in our hearts. He has set in us a longing for something more than just existing — a deeper purpose beyond the day-to-day busyness of life.
Pray for the grace to know God’s purpose and meaning for your life over the course of this series. Pray that you will come to understand what God has already put in your heart.
