Blogging for Christ, Lost Souls, and Encouragement





I have four blogs....why? Simple. I am hoping and praying that even one person may come across them and seek to know God.....as King Solomon says in Ecclesiastes-it is the whole duty of mankind......it's not a burdensome 'duty' but the ONLY Way to live, if you think about eternity with Christ.
In view of this-please feel free to share the blog sites and this post with everyone and maybe they'll share too. One can hope.

Thank you so much for assisting in spreading the Word.


How many times, and how many of us have asked this question? Perhaps all have asked, and many are still asking.
We all have a purpose on earth. We all have varying purposes, some of us even more than one, yet we also ALL have the same purpose!

We are all created by a Loving God. He created us for His own purpose….to glorify Himself. He is the Creator! He could have required that we love Him. He could have forced us to obey Him….but He did NOT choose that for us.
He chose to give us free will.
Yet, we were created to Worship Him, Glorify Him, Know Him, Obey Him, and to Love Him.

King Solomon tells us plainly:

"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man." (Ecclesiastes 12:13)

Also, God Himself tells us:


He hath shown thee, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? (Micah 6:8)


And in the New Testament Jesus says:

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." Amen.
‘For in HIM we live and move and have our being.’ (Acts 17:29)

So, in summary of all--we were all created for the SAME purpose: To KNOW GOD, To Love Him, to Fear Him, to Honor Him, to Glorify Him, to Obey Him.

Everything He does, or tells us to do is for OUR benefit and HIS glory!


And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. (Colossians 3:17)
