You Are Meaningful

"Because God created the world, it has meaning."

You Are Meaningful

Often times, I hear about people, including myself, say that they feel like their life has no meaning. They feel like they have no purpose on this Earth or this universe. That's where they are wrong. This universe and everything in it was created by God and because it was created by Him, that means that everything, including you, has a purpose. There is a reason that you are here and you might not see it or be aware of it, you were put in this place during this time as you are.

You might be confused at why you are placed in a certain situation but most times, it is to help you grow as a person. Sometimes, it's to help other people who might be just as confused as you are. People leave your life and you might hate that, Trust me, I've had many people leave my life and I still don't know why but what I do know is that a reason it there.

Esther 4:14

"Perhaps this is the moment for which you have been created."

You have a purpose. YOU HAVE A PURPOSE. Sometimes it doesn't feel like it but trust me, there's a perfectly good reason that you were placed on this earth, country, town, and in your group of friends. It might not be known to us but guess what, we don't need to know. The only person that needs to know where we are going in life is God.

I am guilty of this, but we can look at someone who physically in a higher place. They might have a better house, car, more money, etc., but none of that will matter when you are put before God because we were all created equal in His eyes. Material things will mean nothing in the end.

It is so easy to forget but there's a reason, you have a meaning. You weren't just placed in because God just needed to put you somewhere and threw a dart to a map and this is where it landed. You have a reason to be where you are and in the end, you'll look back and realize why.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
