Purpose…
I have a lot of questions about purpose. Last summer we endured endless hours of a
high pitch hum from cicadas that had lived in the ground for 17 years. What is the purpose of cicadas appearing
every 17 years? I have no idea! I’ve
been involved in a number of different things and have considered what the
purpose of my involvement was. Purpose
brings about thought and wonderment.
Through that thought and wonderment sometimes we come up with the answer
and sometimes we don’t.
We have many things to consider what the purpose is but
there is one thing that we do not have to wonder about. We don’t have to wonder why Jesus came to
earth. We don’t have to wonder why He
endured the cross. We know the purpose
of Jesus’ death and resurrection.
Pontius Pilate questioned His purpose but Jesus shared with him – “You say that I am a king. For this
purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world—to bear
witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” John 18:37
Jesus fulfilled
His purpose and through that fulfillment we are saved!
