My soul clings to you,Your right hand upholds me.
A friend of mine made this statement last night, “God did not tell us to seek a purpose for our life, that is something we have made up . . .” He had gone through a difficult time and fell into a deep depression because he was trying to find the purpose that God had in his life and couldn’t find any. When he looked at his life, he felt like everything he touched failed. After going through a long depression, he started asking God, “What is important to you?”. He came to realize that “None of this stuff is about us anyways”.
It is not about us. It is not about having a great purpose in life. It is not about our purpose at all, it is about His. And He can either choose to do that in the mundane or He can choose to do that in what the world or the church calls great. We are God’s handiwork. We are the clay, and He is the potter, and He forms the clay as He wishes, for His purposes alone.
