Created On Purpose For A Purpose

"Is there a Creator or not?" is the most important question in the universe. Let's start off with a No Creator premise, shall we? Picture a world without a Creator, and I mean no idea of a Creator from the beginning of time, from whom man has derived moral and ethical norms for life. Life would not have survived past its beginnings. Early humans would have killed each other and gone extinct already, and you already see how animals treat each other when humans aren't involved. Rather sadly, I don't have to do much to convince anybody that there is evil in this world, given recent news of large scale atrocities carried out by humans against other humans. There obviously is good countering the evil; otherwise we would all be dead. Here is my point: if there is no Creator, then we as humans have no relevance, and the ideas of love, peace, hope, etc., are all quite silly. Where do those ideas come from anyway? Well, from religion in general. There is no sense in subjecting ourselves to pain if there is no long term comfort or reward to look forward to, is there? Why should some of us behave if we all end up with nothing in the end? Why would we even want to live? I mean, at best we get old and become absolutely helpless all over again like babies, not to mention the pains, loss of senses, and eventual inconsequential death we all inevitably face. A universe without a Creator is one without order, which is not even scientifically possible. There would be no space and time for the universe and us to exist unless someone or something outside of space and time purposely made everything. Some say, " Well, we are here, aren't we?" Indeed! You don't walk into a thick forest, see a shed, and then conclude that differing shapes and sizes of wood accidentally came together to form it. We'd all concur that is nonsense! So, the fact that we are here is a testament to intelligent design. What I am trying to say is this: you are NOT the result of some random action but are the beautiful creation of a Designer, One intelligent and powerful enough to have created time and space for you. Consider how intricate and wonderful each part of your body is. You were created on purpose for a purpose. Your true worth is hidden in the Designer. You will die sooner or later; don't waste this transient life chasing futile things. Search diligently for the Designer with whom you will find your worth and reward.

Surely, this Designer would have left us instruction as to what our purpose is and how to go about it. That will be covered in my next post. Thank you and God bless!
