WHY AM I HERE - PART 2

 WHY AM I HERE - PART 2

Proverbs 15:22 "Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in this multitude of counsellors, they are established".

Earlier this week, we began understanding what the element of Purpose is and why it is a must have for every true-man. From our scriptural reference, we see that only with good counsel can good purpose be established, hence we need to groom ourselves and lean onto solid counsels for us to fulfil Purpose. 

Let us look at the story of a certain man; an English novelist named Charles Dickens.

This man wrote in his famous book. "A tale of two cities"; he said, life is a  tale told by a fool. He went on to dispute any claims in the opposite saying he had no answer but life was just a bombardment of separated incidents that have no harmony, relativity or relationship with one another. It's just this, that and the other. He further said in life there is no formation, no conclusion, no answer, all are just stage stories been told by a wild man that has no ending, solution or equation. According to his words. life is sporadic, out of control, crazy and all mixed up, His admonishment "Don't try to understand anything about what life is really all about". 

These were his perceptions about the concept Life in totality, but can we say he was correct. NO!

Charles Dickens was wrong in his assessment of life. He sought to draw a conclusion without acknowledging and inquiring from the One who has given life to all men, GOD himself. 

Ask yourself this question? Who creates and just creates for the fun of it - The Blacksmith? The Sculptors? The Gold miners? The Furniture makers? The Builders?. There is no creation without a purpose for its creation.

 God is the Creator of man and all living things. No Manufacturer manufactures without a purpose or reason. Such purpose and reasons are evident in the manufacturer's manual, hence it's essence. There is a manual because he or she has an understanding if these things are not used right, it is only a dent into his work, and there is also a possibility of misuse without the manual. God is the creator of man and there is a reason He did so.

In the journey of life, one of the curious questions that any man should desire to get an answer to is WHY AM I HERE?. The sense of belongings is really what drives man. A very sensible man will always ask himself the question why am I here?, Because he has an understanding if the why? is not answered, then the how? won't surface. 

The inability of a man to first ask the right questions or ask from the right sources, and intentionally being diligent to get the answers is what makes man void of the truth i.e. getting the right answer to the question. The Why? is a very tough question to answer; thus it requires a diligent search to get the right answer.

More importantly, the question Why Am I here? cannot be answered correctly if you are yet to find answers to these two important questions.

Who am I? and where am I from?.

The question "who am I?" is not a question of what is your name, what do you do, what designer clothes are you wearing?. It is a question of identity. It is so pathetic that youth of nowadays have to wear designers clothes before they can feel special or important, that is simply the results of lost or misplaced identity. You are simply what God's words says you are. If you don't read His word, how then do you Know who you are -no way.  When the reality of the answers of who are you? dwells in you, you become victorious at the end of every challenge.

Where am I from is not a question of where is your birth place or what is the name of your country nor ethnicity?. It is simply a question of source. Your source is your Creator. Until you know your source and tap into it, you may run dry like a river which is cut off from the source where it springs from, and also not know the reason why you are here.
