FULFILLING OUR PURPOSE OF EXISTENCE

Source

I am happy to participate in this contest today. It's a nice and insightful topic. What is our purpose for existence? Are we just existing because it's a normal thing to exist, or is there a dream we are meant to fulfill? This is a lifelong question.

Personally, I believe we all have a purpose to fulfill on earth, which is why God created us and sent us to this space. Everyone has his or her own unique purpose, which is why we are not all acting the same way or achieving the same things at the same time. For life to be meaningful, we all have different parts to play, and these parts complement those of others. In life, everyone has a dream to fulfill, and that dream might also aid the fulfillment of another person's dream. In the end, this will help bring the purpose of God for man on earth to pass.

The question now is, how do we discover our purpose so that we can follow and fulfill it? This is a serious task but very important, because some people spend part of their lives chasing other people's dreams instead of their own. The earlier you gain clarity about your purpose in life, the more it helps you streamline your journey and hasten the achievement of certain things. But as I said earlier, this part is a bit tricky, which is why we need the true guidance of the Holy Spirit to direct us and give us clarity about our purpose in life. Once the Holy Spirit is involved and clarity is given, we will know what to do and what not to do. We will know the right people to follow and those to let go of.

Understanding your purpose in life is as important as fulfilling it, because you cannot work on something you do not understand and expect a good result. I often tell my students, if you want to solve any mathematical problem, take time to understand the question first, because understanding is the key to solving it and getting a great result. If you spend two minutes understanding a math problem, you might end up solving it in less than a minute because you have clarity.

The same thing applies in life and in fulfilling the purpose of our existence. Every time we have the opportunity to breathe, there is a task we are supposed to handle, but we must first understand the task. This is why we need God's protection and guidance, the direction of the Holy Spirit, and mentorship from someone who is led by the Spirit and is mature enough to guide us. With these, we will fulfill our purpose for existence. In doing so, we are indirectly fulfilling the purpose and plan of God for humanity on earth.

If you observe closely, you will notice that even the rich are still striving to achieve something. You might wonder why they keep struggling, even though they seem to have everything. The truth is, there is a purpose they are trying to fulfill. Some are aware of it, and some are not. So they keep trying until they get it right and gain clarity about it.
