Life! On Purpose!

We live in a society that does not give value. Material items are for the most part disposable. Has that attitude also affected our relationships?

We all come into this world as children that are impatient. We want everything in the instant and if that does not happen, we throw a temper tantrum and suck all the peace out of the house. What if we never change our ways and take this same attitude into the rest of our lives? Time to learn a “Life Word!”

We all live in a bit of a bubble, but when our bubble becomes what we see the world as, we take ourselves out of the reality of life and effecting others around us. The bubble cannot become our lens to a world view. Time to see the world bigger than our own lives.

Life is an amazing gift. Yes, we are fearfully and wonderfully made, but each of us have a void we are born with. People go through their whole lives trying to fill that void, but miss the answer because they never find what the shape of the void is.

Most people believe that The Creator has a plan for their lives. Is it enough though to believe the plan will come to pass without our embracing it and being involved in it? What about a different plan from a different source? Let’s call that one the default plan. 

The greatest enemy of a relationship with our Creator may not be sin, but rather religion. Are we looking for a formula to appease Him or a life to bring Him? In the end, He is as close to us as we allow Him to be.

“Modern day science is man’s attempt to explain creation without giving The Creator credit.” Are science and Scripture at odds with each other or is there an agenda to make one think there is? What is the real issue?

Look right! Look left! Judge yourself based on the standards you see in others. But, do those standards really mean anything in light of eternity? The lonely direction we should be looking for our standard is up. Our standard for life needs to be based on our destination, not our journey.

Creation does not need to be taught how to be creation. That is not true for humans. In order to become all Yah created you to be, you must engage in the process. You must seek out people who can help and shun people and things that will hinder. In the end, the choice to be or not to be is a personal choice. 

The Creator established order in His creation. Humans are the only part of His creation that has been given a choice to walk in or reject that order. What happens when a society, a nation or even just a family reject His order? The answer is being played out on a daily basis.

The consequences of conversing with the serpent in the garden still plague the earth to this day. Why was the attack first focused on Eve? What was the attack about? How does it effect women today. If we do not know how the war began it is doubtful we will know how to fight it today! 

We begin another Torah cycle this week. Having faith in Genesis 1:1 is essential to our continued reading. Doubt in the beginning will result in doubt through and to the end. Was Eve told to not touch the tree? What did adding to the verse bring? Why was Noah the only one who found grace? 

The current war in Israel is now one year old. That is not really a true statement though. When we understand what this current war is all about, we see that it has been going on since time itself began. Worldly sources desire to deceive and place us on the wrong side of this war. Embracing truth takes more than a casual glance. 

Are you living life in a lazy fashion? Do you just react to life as it comes or are you involved in making it all you can? To quote our first Life! On Purpose! book review, “It is dangerous to be alive and not know why you were given life!”

The question of the centuries is, why is evil in the world. This seems like such a complicated question, but in reality, it has a very simple answer. What is complicated is why human kind does not embrace the answer.

What does it mean to have a Biblical worldview? In this episode we discuss basic principles of Scripture which can guide our lives and the decisions we make. Of course, we take a few unexpected twists and turns.

We had a great direction planned, but when the record button was clicked, a hard turn was in store. Is it morbid to speak of death or the realities of life? Should we not be the ones providing answers instead of just acting like all is good? 

Can we boil life down to a very basic formula? The answer is, yes! In the end, you will find a destination based on your choice. If this is true, a person would do well to live life with more purpose than chance.

Our lives did not begin with us and they do not end with us. We were given gifts, good and or bad to begin our lives and we leave gifts, good or bad for others. We do actually have a say so in the gifts we will leave. Just how engaged will we be in that?
