The Meaning Of Life

How do I find meaning in life? According to the statistics over one billion people visit the Internet each day. Of these, at least a million are searching for answers to the deeper questions of life. Beckett says that fortunately, the Bible helps us to understand that life's meaning is rooted in a unique friendship.


He tell that Billy Graham says, It is the greatest discovery you will ever make: You were created to know God and be His friend forever (The Journey, p. 23).John Beckett also says the key to understanding how you can be God's friend is to know you were created with more than a body, mind and soul. You were created with a spirit.


Your human spirit was awakened when you were born again, enabling you to communicate directly with God and have fellowship with Him. The Apostle Paul says we "received the spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ' Abba, Father'" (Romans 8:15). "Abba "literally means "Daddy."The heart of every person deeply longs for true friendship. Think about your best friends and how important those relationships are. Even though friends on this earth may come and go, in God you have a friend Who will be there forever. Graham says further: "This is a staggering truth. Think of it. The infinite, all-powerful holy God of the universe wants to be your friend! He wants you to know him personally.


He wants you to know He is with you. He wants to comfort you when you are upset or anxious. He wants to guide you when you face difficult decisions, and He even wants to correct you when you are about to do something foolish or wrong" (p. 31).For finalizing he tells that you were created to be God's friend. This reflects the enormous heart of your wonderful Lord! What a privilege to be one of His children, to be able to come to Him any time, day or night, to be completely open with Him, Thought: The real meaning of my life is to know God and to be His friend forever.
