The purpose of life

Illustrated.

Like all other toy stores, this one also gave life to its products after midnight.

Alex our character, is a toy. Round, shinning on both sides, with rubber lining all around. Alex always had the energy to do the best, and all the other toys were proud of his achievements. He had practiced his skills in rolling and became a racer, drifter, and a hero in the store. But at the end of the day, even he started questioning the purpose of his life.

We cannot blame Alex because he had achieved everything the world expected him to achieve, but nothing his creator wanted him to do. Alex did not know the purpose for which his creator made him because he had no relationship with the creator.

Our life on earth can be compared to that of Alex. We were not born accidentally, we were born to fulfill our creator’s purpose. God our creator, has planned for us even before we knew anything about our life. The problem is that we fail to ask God for our User’s Manual and that we live life by what we think is the best we can do.

If Alex had a relationship with his creator, he would have understood, that he was not a tyre, but a mirror creatively designed with a rubber lining: to avoid sharp edges for the kids.

Likewise, it is only when we maintain our relationship with God that can we understand our purpose in life. Being successful and fulfilling your purpose in life are different things altogether. You need to orient yourself with God, to be able to fulfill your purpose in life.

Keep God as your origin. Maintain a strong relationship with him. Understand that Life is not about you, it’s about Him.
