What Is Your Destiny?
|
 Does
life have a purpose? Does it have real
meaning? Is life anything more than a brief span
on earth, with nothing but eternity on either side
of this physical existence?
This is the question of the ages, a riddle that has
challenged human beings since they came to be:
Why am I here? Why do I exist?
Thousands of years ago, the biblical King David
looked up into the night sky and wrote down
his thoughts regarding man's relationship to his
Creator: "When I consider Your heavens, the work
of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You
have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of
him, and the son of man that You visit him?"
David wondered about the purpose
of man just as we do today.
Every one of us was created for a
purpose, but few understand what
that great purpose is. Our free
booklet What Is
Your Destiny? will
help you understand the incredible
truth about why you were
born!
