For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. —Romans 15:4

Purpose

I could watch the giant sea turtle at the Newport Aquarium for hours. He sails around the huge tunnel tank as if he were as small as a goldfish. I am amazed at the creatures God has created. When he formed the earth and imagined each creature, I cannot even comprehend the vastness of his creativity. From the tiniest insect to the big blue whale, God saw life and purpose for every living thing. Including you and me.

Proverbs 19:21 says: "Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails." We all have plans for our lives, things to do, lists to complete. But, true purpose comes from God; his purpose for us is to accept his Bible as truth and Christ as our Saviour.
