Chris Bailey III - Answers To The Big Why

Revelation 4:11 KJV
Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for Thou hast created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created.

I can't say how grateful I am for the truth of the creation, a Creator, and having had the chance to learn it. Thank you Father for Christian parents & Christian education! But Revelation 4 takes meaning of Creation to a while new level - we weren't just made by God, we were made for God. Just one verse unwraps the whole mystery of the great WHY of life - "Why am I here?!?!"

We get tripped by the Enemy to struggle to grasp or hold on to the Biblical HOW of life. COLOSSIANS 1:12,16 KJV clearly says "Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: [16] For by Him [Jesus Christ] were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him:" We were made by God our Father, through His Son Jesus Christ, on the 6th literal day of the seven days of creation (See GENESIS 1-2 for more).

If we can't rest on the truth of the HOW of life, it makes it virtually impossible to rise in the WHY if life. We were made for God! That makes every other why of life, every other purpose of life, a fraud. You weren't made to fail. You weren't made to make money. You weren't made to hurt. You weren't made to work then die. You weren't made to be lost. We were made to be the prime source of God's joy. We were made to please God! YOU are the gift to give to the God Who has everything! We are intimate masterpieces to not just reflect the image of God, but to eternally receive the image of God, which is His love without measure!

The why of life is just as much a reality as the how of life. May the intellectual truth of the facts of life rest in our minds, in order to prep our hearts for "the why of love?" The question that will take an eternity for God to fully explain and for us to understand, but we can believe it TODAY!
