Lost Cause

Just read a friend’s blog. I wasn’t tagged or anything, but it caught my attention because it was about our friend who just gave up his career as a nurse to start bible school. My friend described it as somewhat admirable of him, something that he can never do or can’t see himself doing because he said that he’s lost in this world, walking aimlessly and wandering in uncertainty.

It just struck me how there are so many lives out there being lived without a purpose. They feel empty and useless, though they go through life’s everyday routine, they still feel as if they’re robots in autopilot. Nothing new happens and spontaneity is a lovely surprise that just occasionally jump starts their catatonic lives. Success may be evident outwardly but in reality, hope and joy is ebbing away. This is a pitfall that anyone can get into. A prison cell that no one wants to visit. A LOST CAUSE.

If you feel you’re on the verge of breaking down, giving up or trashing your life away because of problems weighing you down

OR

You feel unreal, empty and too nonchalant about almost everything. You simply don’t care and you feel your life is just passing by without you knowing it

just like what my friend wrote:
“My deliverance is far-fetched, just as I would rather think and do none of it. Still afraid this box would entirely collapse if I make, even just a tiny hole.”

I’ll say:
“NO!! No to feeling of being lost and walking aimlessly. No to being caged and being trapped in my comfort zone. No to a life not served.”

Life is a quest to find one’s purpose. Seek and search. Find why you were made and when you find it, never let it go. Run with vigor and with the drive to accomplish your cause.

The Bible says in Jeremiah 33:3:
“Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know”

Where will we find our purpose? To the one who created us.
It may sound corny or weird to some, but it’s true. No one can answer our questions but God.
He holds the future. He holds the key to life.
