why am I here and what is my perpose?
my life - it revolves around God - all my dreams, all my years.
My friendships - they're based on God. My thoughts revolve, rotate - meditate around THis Devine Being.
But...if God wasn't and never has been, I am nothing.
My poems, my sings - they are nothing. My eye color - attempts at being beautiful - they amount to nothing.
Love - devotion - loyalty. Anger, sorrow - emotion - NOTHING.
Because, if I am only a blob of mass, a glob of meaningless chemicals that formed over millions of meaningless, perposeless years, then years are nothing.
Time isn't, really. A sunset which is thought to be lovely is NOT, because, what IS lovely? If we are nothing, and there is no perpose, then what do we know what lovely is or isn't?
what is common sense? How do we know if it isn't or nay? WE DON'T.
WHY? Because we are nothing!
Suddenly, everything that had some sort of value or gave some sort of joy, has no perpose AT ALL. All perpose goes when The Creator goes.
But...
if God is who He says He is and if God IS, then I am something.
I am dust.
And, if I am dust, then I breathe with the miracle of God's breath.
And, if I breathe the with the miracle of God's breath, the I must be worth
something.
I'm worth the death of His only Son.
Suddenly, then, a sunset is lovely, because The Supplier of Life made is so!
Common sense IS, because God gave me a brain, fashioned after His Own!
Emotions, -they are,because God is such a Mater Artist that he not only wove them into the very fibers of our beings, but he wove them into the whole earth.
The trees, they wrustle with it - the stars, their eyes twinkle with it! My attempts at beauty are then for the perpose of the pleasure of my Father, who takes me and loves me jsut the way I am. My poems and songs fragrent the essence of who He is. My dreams ARE visions and my Friends are gifts.
Yay, I live NOT in vain!
