We live on earth for a purpose. We have a mission to fulfill for the glory of God and our salvation.
Remember, this is the promise of Christ. We're here to do good, to find a deeper meaning to our existence, and then to live in eternity when we pass from this life.
But how can we find a meaningful living amidst the threats and chaos in our times? With the Covid-19 pandemic, we all seem to suffer, and many people are getting sick and dying.
Have they fulfilled their purpose? Their mission?
The rich and the poor, the young and the old, the weak and the strong are dying. Once infected by the deadly unseen enemy, no one seems spared.
As a year has passed, it's disheartening to see us repeating our mistakes. It's as if we're stuck in a cycle of suffering, waiting for a lesson to be learned. We're experiencing a predictable turn of events, knowing what will happen next. It's like we're watching a rewind and another season of the same circumstances.
It's natural to wonder, are we truly in control of all of this? Or is it God who is in control?
One thing that Christ sacrificed is his passion, death, and resurrection to save humanity from sin. He endured suffering so that we could understand our nature of living. And not to be cowardly or defeated by our demons and weaknesses.
If the world is doing its cleansing, we all suffer; either we survive or die. We're the first or the last in line. Eventually, our fate is that we die. Not our will, but His divine will, which is the plan and purpose that God has for each of us, even in times of suffering.
Who will save us? What happens when we die? Christ's teachings offer us reassurance. He is our savior, and when we die, we can find comfort in the promise of eternal life in His presence.
Christ taught us that He is the way, the truth, and the life. He'll be eternally in our hearts and minds when we listen and follow Him. Our path to salvation will always have Divine guidance. Our salvation is to live each day with faith in our hearts. To track and be guided, to suffer and survive, to be crucified and resurrected.
