What is my purpose in life?

A question that people inevitably ask is "What is my purpose in life?" Some believe that they exist to have fun. Some believe that they exist to start a family and to raise children. Some believe that they exist to help mankind through philanthropy. As you can see, some of these are noble and admirable.

The true duty of man is found in Ecclesiastes 12:13-14. It reads, "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil." It is sad to see that instead of fearing God, people go their own way (Titus 1:16; Philippians 2:21).

You will only find true happiness by complying with God's will. Life will always have ups and downs, but the hope that you will possess will anchor your soul in eternity (Hebrews 6:18-19).
