Identifying as an atheist, he saw life as completely meaningless. This is what Russian novelist Andrei Bitov discovered.įor years, he’d been living in despair. When you feel as though you’re surrounded by chaos, it often helps to look for God to help make sense of things. This is something to remember the next time you feel insignificant in the world. And this brings us to one of the five purposes in every Christian’s life: to find out about this ministry in God’s big plan and to embrace it.
You see, God shaped every one of us for our unique ministry to him. This applies to every aspect of your life: all your talents and experiences that make you who you are, as well as the people and things that matter to you. You were created deliberately, purposefully. Instead, he happily chose you! The simple fact of your existence is God’s delight. Well, let’s make one thing clear first: God was not obliged to create you. But what exactly does this mean for you and me? The Christian answer to this question is well-known: we were created by God, to serve him.
And for good reason – the meaning of life is one of the toughest questions faced by mankind. Clichéd as it is, just about all of us have stared up at the night sky and pondered the meaning of life.
