Today is Tuesday, August 13, 2019, and here is your daily devo. What are we on Earth for? Attempts to answer that question are at every turn. This text reminds us that countless opinions are offered up regarding this issue.
Think of all the different philosophies and perspectives on life and why we are here. Talk shows, magazines, blogs, and websites bombard us with advice and counsel on how to live. But unless they conclude that we were made for God and His commands, they are wrong and should be rejected. Deep down, all humans know that they were made for God.
As Christians, we have a tremendous opportunity to offer hope to our world. We know why we are here. We know why we were put on this Earth. We know the path to ultimate meaning and purpose.
We have a living savior who came to give us abundant life and overflowing joy. We don't simply offer the world ideas, information, or philosophy. We offer the world a person, a person who died and rose again. We offer living hope, living water, and living bread and reigning king named Jesus.
Think about this. How should your relationship with Christ affect the way you view all of life's activities? How should our relationship with Christ motivate us to be on mission for Him? How about this?
