what on earth ...

... am i here for? is basically a question of one's Existence; Significance & Intention.

sometimes we wonder if we are born to get ourselves into trouble (or perhaps create trouble for others?), born only to have sorrow & to end in disgrace? the question of existence is WHY AM I ALIVE? in Ephesians 1:4 (msg): "Long before He (God) laid down earth's foundations, He had us in mind, and settled on us as the focus of His love to be made whole and holy by His love." - answers that we were created to be loved by God.

sometimes we wonder why our lives seems so useless or meaningless? DOES MY LIFE MATTER? God created us for His purposes, to be loved by Him & "His plans endure forever, His purposes last eternally." (Psalm 33:11) - answers that we were made to last forever.

life has no purpose if we do not know the purpose of our lives... WHAT IS MY PURPOSE? Ephesians 1:11 (msg) says "It's in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for... part of the overall purpose He is working out in everything and everyone." - answers that we will find our purpose by getting to know God.

this is just an introduction. in the next 5 sessions, we will discover the 5 purposes of our existence, the reasons why God has created us & how we ought to live a purposeful & meaningful life!
