We were not brought into existence to live
meaningless, insignificant lives. God does not create things without a purpose.
A grand drama is unfolding. We have been created to be a part of it and to play
a role in it.
I realize most of us we read lofty words like this on
a regular basis and what I’ve written here can seem like more of the same old,
tired verbiage.
“Sure Dan, a grand drama is unfolding… uh huh… blah,
blah, blah.”
But the alternative is to believe life is basically
a fairly pointless, random accident that occurs for an incredibly brief period,
relatively speaking, and then it’s over and we’re gone.
This is not intended to be a powerful argument for
the truth of the “grand drama” view of things. This is simply how I express the
fact that I am far more inspired by the idea of a life of genuine significance.
“For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus
to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10
