Meaning of life

Wow... the title looks deep, doesn't it?

Everyone is seeking for the meaning of his or her life, no matter if you realize it or not. Me included.

Really, what's the meaning of life? What is the purpose of life? IF there is one. Are we supposed to be living for our own selves, or there are people that we are actually living for?

The former is often termed as selfish. The second one is just.... tiring and burdensome. Just, how much, how long, can you live for a person? You remain alive, because you want to be there for your parents, your children or your spouse. But what happen after they die, or leave? Do you... leave too? Does that mean that your life is over now? So you can go and commit suicide?

Now, suicide is stupid. And just wrong. And sad.
Listen now, this is reality, even though it might not click with you:
Suicide means that you totally give up your life to the devil. You are going to be separated from God for eternity.

Several times, I have thought of committing suicide.

When? You asked.
When I scored badly in my exam...
When I argued with my dad and thought that he doesn't love me anymore....
When I felt like I am not important to anyone and no one will realize if I am gone.....
When he left me......

These reasons are stupid. I know.

But really, tell me, is there really a legitimate and reasonable excuse for you for taking your own life? And after doing that, find yourself not guilty.

You leave behind the people who cares for you sad and grieving. You take away their hope and future. You ruin their lives because of your own ruined life. You are hurting the ones that are around you. You let them down.

But then you said.... You don't understand... THERE IS REALLY NO ONE WHO CARES!

*KNOCK YOUR HEAD* *SCREAM INTO YOUR FACE*

GOD CARES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Even after I have come to know God personally, sometimes, the idea of leaving this world still used to creep into my mind.

I felt wearisome and tired. Felt like I have do deal with so many ungodly things in this world. Hate to see how satan is trying to ruin my life and all those around. I just wish that I can be in heaven with God sooner. So that I don't have to deal with all of these anymore. For eternity.

So why am I still here? Why don't I just kill myself and be in heaven with God?

If you think the same way that I used to think. Then, really, you don't even know who God is. You don't know His character yet.

You don't believe that He is good. You don't trust in Him that He is going to give you a hope and a future, He has a plan to prosper you and not to harm you. He wants the best thing for you. He wants to give you joy and peace. He wants to give you a meaningful life. He wants to be the fulfillment in your life. He wants to!

God will NEVER let you suffer.
He will NEVER forsake nor leave you.

He is well pleased with you.

Get this into your head:
HE GAVE HIS SON JESUS FOR YOU!
He gave his son Jesus for me!

All is done! ALL IS DONE ON THE CROSS! Do you get it?!!!!! How much more do you want Him to prove His love for you? There is nothing you can do to make Him love you more.

You have a hope! You have a future! You are not useless! You are created for a purpose! You are precious! No one can ever take up your place. YOU ARE UNIQUE!

Now, stop telling me that no one cares. I care. Your friends care. Your parents care. GOD CARES.

If there is one who really doesn't care about you and can't wait to see you die, it is the devil.

Live for God who truly cares about you. Live for Him. Don't live for the world. Don't live for the devil.

Don't break His heart. He loves you more than you can ever imagine. No matter if you have accepted Him or not. His love never change.

I love you too.
