What Is The Meaning Of Life?


Why isn't my life working? Why am I here? What'ss the purpose of it all? Why do I feel empty all the time? If you've ever asked these questions, you are like all human beings. We need to understand this life and what we're all about. We all try to numb our emptiness with pain-killers that wear off quickly. We think buying a boat or getting a new job or divorcing our wife will make us happy, but in the end, we must change from the inside out to be truly happy. I know, because my life was going nowhere fast. I felt like a loser, and I knew there had to be a better way. That's when I found out that I could live in a different dimension, a higher way of doing things. I found out that God wanted to be with me every step of the way, and He didn't care that I had no money or that I had miserably messed up. He would love me as I was. That's when I realized the only way to understand ourselves is to know the One Who made us.

We all want an escape from the pressure, fear, stress and pain of this life. Although, we live on a fallen planet full of sin and pain, there is a way to rise above it all. You need a rebirth out of this dark place into the Kingdom of God, becoming His child. As a member of God's household you receive all the rights and the inheritance of the Creator God. If God is above fear and depression, then as His child, so are you. Asking Jesus to take control of your life is the best decision you will ever make. The moment you say Yes to Jesus as Lord of your life, you will never be the same. The Bible says Old things have passed away, behold all things are new,2 Corinthians 5:17. You become born again as the Bible says, and you no longer have to live your life filled with uncertainty, guilt and regret. Now, just because you welcome God into your life, that doesn't mean everything will be perfect from then on, but it does mean you can start renewing your life to the truth of what God says about you, and you will enter the process of change. You can begin to speak to your problems and see them change. 

 

Romans 10:9-10says If you will confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead you shall be saved. For with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

Faith operates in the heart and is released by the words of your mouth. When you pray and ask Jesus into your life, you become changed from the inside out. You come into a right relationship with God through the sacrifice Jesus made. He died on the cross for you. You can accept His sacrifice, and you can receive His life in exchange for your sin. Isn't that wonderful! God loves you so much He gave His only Son so that He could come into fellowship with you. He wants to fellowship with you everyday.

God has a plan for your life. You are not here by accident. Before you were formed in the womb, He knew you and His plans are for your good. It is His good pleasure to give you the kingdom. He wants to prosper you, even as your soul prospers. He wants you in good health, strong and full of joy and peace.

We encourage you to open your heart and ask Jesus to take your life and be your Lord and Savior. It is simple, but absolutely necessary to the inner peace that everyone craves. Just pray this prayer from your heart:

 

God, I believe You sent Jesus Christ to die for my sins. Thank you that He defeated death so that I can live forever with You. I ask You to forgive me for all that I have done, and give me a new life. I don't want to live the way I have been living. I want to follow You, Jesus, and the rest of my days I will live for You. I ask You, Jesus, to come into my life and change my heart right now. I accept You as my Lord and Savior! Thank You for dying for me and giving me this new life. I receive all You have for me in the name of Jesus! Amen!"
