Unless you are feeling depressed, no one wants to live a meaningless life, void of any worth or value. Something within the human soul cries out for purpose in life, hoping to make a difference in this world. Deep inside the longest chapter of the Bible, lies a prayer for significance, Psalm 119:36-37.
This prayer begins with the heart, shifting one’s attention toward the statues written in the Bible. Following this call, one must crucify their selfish desires and passions as the apostle Paul suggests in Galatians 5:24. Once these habits, patterns and ways are purged from one’s mind, a new person can emerge.
The second portion of this prayer focuses on replacing the old with an entirely new perspective. Like an addict starting over from scratch, individuals must learn what it means to invest your time in worthwhile activities. As eyes and ears start to grasp the truths of Scripture, Psalm 119:9-11, this journey commences. Within a Romans 12:1-2 attitude, the words of the Bible can preserve your steps, leading you to significance!
