Choose Life

Deep within us is a restless desire to know the One who made us. We want to discover the purpose He has for our existence in His vast universe. We long to find peace in a world that is being torn apart by feuding families, warring nations, militant religious groups, economic uncertainties, and self-destructive addictions. At times, we may try to suppress that longing by fill- ing our emptiness with a busy life, community service, career pursuits, romantic relationships, or covering up the ache with drugs or alcohol. Even though we may suppress or deny that longing within us, it will surface again and again.
