Hey Fam!
A recent study by the Cultural Research Center of Arizona Christian University revealed that less than 20 percent of Americans who consider themselves to be Christians identified their ultimate reason for living as knowing, loving, and serving God.
This means that over 80 percent of Christians surveyed in this study identified something other than these three things as their ultimate purpose for living.
Houston, we have a problem.
Many Christians don’t know their purpose. And you can bet that this rings true for non-believers as well.
Although this news is shocking and sad, it's the perfect impetus to help you confidently understand your purpose in life and live with purpose.
Knowing Is Half the Battle
In order to live with purpose, you must first know what your ultimate purpose for living is. It’s been mentioned already, but it’s worth repeating. Knowing, serving, and loving God is your ultimate purpose for living. That’s it. I’m sorry, “being happy” didn’t make the final cut. This is not to say that we won’t experience happiness or won’t desire happiness. God blesses us with what I call “extras.” Extras are just not our main priority.
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Matthew 6:33, NKJV
