Lack of purpose is the doorway to life’s destruction. This can be said in a more popular way as an “idle mind is the devil’s workshop”. What is life all about? What on earth am I here for? What is the point of living? Have you had these thoughts crop up within you? It is a sure sign of something within you that wants to seek the truth, the purpose of our lives on this earth. Every man and woman lives each day with a goal set before them, it could be a short term or a long term one. Often for many, the main purpose of life is to secure a good, well paying job, get married, bring up a new generation and then one day retire and spend their autumn of their lives under the care of their children and grandchildren. Is it wrong to have such goals? No, there is nothing wrong. But is that all life all about? Where, we think, sleep, eat for ourselves, where men become groups and clusters and islands who do no benefit to humanity around, doesnt matter if your neighbor starves through out the day and their children are orphaned? We can make a difference in this world and that’s exactly what we are here for. It was no accident that you are born in this nation in such circumstance as yours. God wants each of us to be a blessing where ever we are. We needn’t be sages or mighty holy men and women to do this. Think about this, search for your purpose, have wider vision for your life in a larger canvas that has the whole wide world as the backdrop…
