2. The Bible is our owner's manual written by God.
3. You were made by God and for God--and until you understand that, life will never make sense. (Rick Warren) For the life of every living thing is in his hand, and the breath of all humanity. Job 12:10
4. Self-help will not git 'er done.
5. because of Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us from the beginning, and all things happen just as he decided long ago. Eph 1:11

• You discover your identity and purpose through a relationship with Jesus Christ.
• God was thinking about you long before you thought about Him.
• The purpose of your life fits into a much larger, cosmic purpose that God has designed for eternity.

The Big Point: It's not about me.

The Big Question: In spite of all hte advertising around me, how can I remind myself that life is really about living for God, not myself?
