Have you ever spent much time thinking about the significance and meaning of life? Are there times when life just doesn’t seem to make sense? Does life often seem purposeless?

Do you sometimes feel like you are floating in the middle of the ocean struggling to keep your head above water? Or at times does your life seem like a three-ring circus that is out-of-control?

Several years ago, a young man we will call Bill ran a poll to discover what it was people most wanted out of life. And the results were rather surprising. The things people most wanted out of life were not money, houses, and cars.

What people most wanted in life were peace, love, and joy. Three things that money cannot buy.

Now, if you are like most people then most likely you are looking for meaning, purpose, peace, joy, and love in your life also. You too probably sense a void deep within that you have not been able to fill no matter how hard you try.

Fortunately for you, the answer is much closer than you thought possible. By now you probably know what…or rather who the answer is. Right?

Before the ‘Answer’ showed up about two thousand years ago, a man arrived on the scene who proclaimed, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!”

And soon after, the ‘ANSWER’ appeared…bringing the hope that so many desperately struggle to find.

If you need help and hope…simply call upon the NAME that is above every other name both in heaven and on earth…the name of Jesus.

Now, pay close attention to what God (Jesus) says here in His word:

“Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and make your hearts pure, you double-minded.” James 4:8

And…

“When I close up the sky so that it doesn’t rain, or command locusts to devour the land’s vegetation, or send a plague among my people, if my people, who belong to me, humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their sinful practices, then I will respond from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:13-14

Look! It just cannot get any clearer than this. God has already taken the first step toward giving you the peace, love, joy, and everything else you desire to be happy. Only He can fill the void that you sense in your life. Only He can give you the purpose and the meaning you search for in your life.

Do not wait another minute. Seek Him now. He is waiting for you!

God says in His word, “And you will seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13

I have learn in the past few years that it is good to set a little time for yourself. In this life of hurry we seldom stop to settle down and relax. I retire a few years ago, and one week after I retired I was doing more than I did when I was working. So one year later I found myself back at work. I work for another 10 years and retired once more. This time I stay busy but not as much as I did the first time. My children look at me and said daddy why don’t you rest. You have work hard all of your life, now don’t you think that it is time you look out for yourself. I though about it and I did slow down a little. As I started to play around on the internet, there seem to be something out there for me. I could enjoy myself at home while doing what I wanted to do. For some reason I am starting to like being around the computer. I don’t know that much about it but for a 66 year old guy I think that I can learn some more. I have even decided that I will start a business online. I am not interest in become rich, I just want to make a nice living in my old age. I have learned to not worry about everything, and not to stress out about everything. I have come to understand the old saying of (Don’t worry about things that you have no control over). I’ve learn to take life as it is. You know what, life is very sweet now. Well it’s time to go and get ready for my grandson’s baseball game and enjoy him for a while.
