Meaning

There is a perspective that everyone has a World View, whether they think about it or not, and a World View must include four pieces to be complete. These pieces are Origin – Where does everything come from? Morality – What is the source of right and wrong? Meaning – Why are we here? and Destiny – What happens after earthly death?

I think most Christians have a good handle on Origin, Morality, and Destiny, but I think we don’t have clarity on the Meaning topic. Why are we here?

St. Paul addresses this very succinctly in Romans 11:36, writing “For everything comes from Him and exists by His power and is intended for His glory. All glory to Him forever! Amen.”

Dear Lord, help us remember that all you have made, including us and everything we have, comes from you and is intended to glorify you. Help us live this. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
