MCGI TOPIC REVIEW | The Purpose Of Our Existence

Brother Eli reminded us that existence does not just begin with our concerns, our plans, or that our dreams.

We just look up on there and realize we're just here. That alone should just humble us. We have the chair analogy, which is very simple but powerful. A chair does not have to debate which of its functions or not. It exists because a maker intended it for you to serve.

In the same way, Brother Eli argue that lives are not self-authored, but divine workmanship. Inefficiency to reframe this purpose, not as something we have invented, but something that God has already given us. What is important here is learning from Ecclesiastes.

In the long life of many children and achievements, none of this can compensate living an empty life. This challenge is success-metric. Living long without doing good. It's just like a tragedy, not a blessing, so I would be pushed to stop asking what do I want to be, and asking what does my creator want me to achieve?

Regardless of your identity, background, or struggles, the call is the same. Do good to yourself, to others, to enemies. It is a responsibility.

Stay Blessed.
