Life Without Purpose

If life has no purpose, there is no good reason for life to possess value, elicit morality, or truly satisfy, instead it will be filled with anguish, instability, and loneliness.



"All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God's anger, just like everyone else" -The Bible (Ephesians 2:3).

Smoke and Mirrors

If life is not guided by the right purpose, a sense of moral obligation will not influence nor order a smoke and mirror like existence.



"Throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception" -The Bible (Ephesians 4:22).

Notwithstanding time, culture, or privilege, in ancient Athens or contemporary Singapore, in cultured opera houses or at pounding music concerts, forms of the existential "why do I exist" question haunt the human psyche.




"I observed everything going on under the sun, and really, it is all meaningless- like chasing the wind" - The Bible (Ecclesiastes 1:14).

Worried about Food for Tomorrow

The human life is not about cuisine and clothing, life is more than food and raiment. We don't live to eat as life's purpose, or eat to live as food's purpose.



"So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today" -The Bible (Matthew 6:3-4).

Disorder

The more conspicuous the stage, be it entertainment, politics, business, movies, religion, sports, or science, the more obvious our blind sidedness or obliviousness regarding the intentional life.


"For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind" -The Bible (James 3:16).

Memories

The best known faces will eventually reside in the memory of a few people, who themselves will eventually become memories, when the curtain of life falls on them.


"The living at least know they will die, but the dead know nothing. They have no further reward, nor are they remembered." -The Bible (Ecclesiastes 9:5).

Building a life requires envisioning, planning, and implementation. Your life provides an immediate and astounding opportunity to build a powerful, beautiful, and worthwhile future.

"Anyone who listens to My teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock" - The Bible (Matthew 7:24).
