Message

Rose’s mom bought a box of matches so she could have her gas cooker lit whenever she needed to cook. But surprisingly the matches in the box could not strike to give her fire for her gas. She was so disappointed that she had to trash it, because it could not meet the purpose of its purchase. Ecclesiastes 12:13b says “Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.” There is a reason why God created man; it is to fear Him and obey all His commandments.

To fear the Lord, you must depart from your sin and serve the Lord with all your heart and your soul. Then you begin to obey His commandments.
– Love the Lord with ally our hearts and serve Him only.
– Tell other people: your siblings, parents, friends, neighbours about the love of Jesus so they can also fulfil the purpose of their creation.
– Love all the people around you and treat them the way you would want to be treated.

Any boy or girl who does not fulfil the major purpose of his/her creation will be thrown into outer darkness just like the useless matches. The main reason why you are created is to serve God. Every other achievements are additional, start to fulfil God’s purpose for your life from today.
