to receive glory and honor and power.
For you created all things,
and they exist because you created what you pleased.” (Revelation 4:11)
Why do you exist and what purpose do you have in this life? These are common questions that many struggle with.
Simply put, you exist for God’s good pleasure. In Revelation we are told that our God “created all things, and they exist because you created what you pleased.”
It pleased God to create you, and it pleases Him to see you enjoy the life you were gifted. It is so easy to look at all our terrible thoughts and misdeeds and believe that God cannot possibly love or forgive us. The reality is that nobody loves us more than our Creator.
Is the Lord pleased when we sin? Of course not. But like the perfect and loving Father that He is, even in our worst moments, we can be assured of His Love. He is Steadfast, Patient, and Forgiving. He is Love, and there is nothing we can do that will change that.
Live life, find joy, and thank the Creator for every good thing. And remember, it was His pleasure!
