Why Did God Make Us?

God’s purpose for mankind is simple, and outlined in His Word very clearly. He wants us to know Him, to walk with Him and fulfill His purposes for our lives so that He will be glorified. Today’s scriptures explore this, but I encourage you to read and seek more for yourself in His Word.

Thank you Lord for creating me for Your glory and allowing me to willingly walk in the works Thou has prepared for me. You gave us free will to serve You; so when we walk, it is not only out of obedience, gratitude, and hope for blessings, but out of love. Let us remember what God has done for us through His Son, Jesus, so that when we serve Him, it is for the right reasons. Amen!
