Why Am I On This Earth-Discover Your Purpose of Life


Can you detect any purpose of life theme in the lyrics from Nowhere Man, a popular song recorded by the Beatles in 1965?


He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me

Nowhere Man, please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere Man can you see me at all

Nowhere Man, don't worry
Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me

Nowhere Man, please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command

He's a real Nowhere Man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

The purpose of life is much larger than you or me, our families, careers or our goals and accomplishments. Life is not about us at all. It's about God.

This message becomes very clear in the following encouraging bible verses:

Jeremiah 29:11 reads, "For I know the plans I have for you", says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."

Isaiah 43:7 reads, "All who claim me as their God will come, for I have made them for my Glory. It was I who created them."

1 Corinthians 10:31 reads, "Whatever you eat or drink or whatever you do, you must do all for the glory of God."

Psalm 32:8 reads, "The Lord says, "I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you."

Proverbs 16:9 reads, "We can make our plans but the Lord determines our steps." A former church pastor gave a great message recently on why we are on this planet.

Here is a summary of what he said:

  • God created us for His glory
  • Our purpose of life is twofold:

  • To glorify God
  • To fulfill His life purpose not ours
  • You can do anything, be anyone or go anywhere as long as you include God
  • Your vocation in life doesn't matter. Whatever you do, glorify God in your own way
  • Life is short. Let's fulfill God's purpose, not ours, with the time He has given us

Rick Warren, founder and pastor of Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California, authored a best-selling book entitled, The Purpose-Driven Life. Over 25 million copies have been sold and its topic is the true purpose of life.

    In his book, Pastor Warren states that it is only in God that we discover our origin, our identity, our meaning, our purpose, our significance, and our destiny. He goes on to say that we were made for God, not vice versa, and life is about letting God use us for His purposes, not us using Him for our own purposes.
