No Accident

I told you yesterday, and I'll tell you again: God knew you before you were even born., he has a specific purpose for your life. And guess what, you wouldn't be alive if God didn't want to create you.

He worked out every tiny detail of your life. How long your toenails would grow from March 10 - April 15. That you have that peculiar mannerism whenever you're nervous.
He knew the date you were to be born, and the length of your life.
He knew where you'd be born, and your place in the world.
Even how you would be born.

Everything about you, God knew it all. Every precise detail.

Your parents had the exact DNA to make the perfect custom 'you'.

He even took into account sin and human error. He knew Mikey J would be born a specific way - all for His purpose. His awesome purpose.

He made you so that He could show you his love. His love is totally reliable. He created the world, because of you... Oh it wasn't like he was lonely or anything, he didn't need to create you. He made you because of His love.

Imagine you are the result of pure random chance, the roll of a die. Life has no meaning.

But God made you for a reason and you'll discover it when you focus on your creator.

Without God, life doesn't make sense.

Colossians 1:16b

People think that the way to know the meaning and the purpose of your life depend on who you are as a person. Your dreams and aspirations, your happiness.

I've learnt that isn't necessarily the case. I can look at a blank envelope, and although I could tell you that envelopes are for sending information, i couldnt tell you what the specific envelope is intended for. Life is like that.

You could speculate that the blank envelope will contain a birthday invitation, but you don't know for sure. You could tell me you have no idea, and we'd both be clueless, you could make something up, and we'd be believing a lie, or we could ask the sender and we'd both have a revelation.

We can't focus on ourselves to know our purpose. We could become successful and achieve all our purposes and desires, but still miss what God's purpose for our life. God had a purpose for us long before we ever appeared on the scene. Let God work his purpose through you, become who God wants you to be.

We must focus on the Creator, have a personal relationship with Him and seek His word.



Lord, help us to seek you to know our life's purpose. Help us to drown out the voices that say it's all about us. Be with us as we live for You,
We love you,
Amen
