This sermon emphasizes the importance of knowing God's purpose to find meaning in life. It shares a powerful story of a woman who discovered the true meaning of life through understanding God's eternal purpose. The message highlights that without being connected to God's purpose, life can feel empty and meaningless, but once aligned with His plan, life gains profound significance and fulfillment.

Knowing God's purpose gives us meaning to our lives. We know that God created man with a purpose, and if we do not know that purpose, our life is meaningless. And that's the reason why you find in the world today. Most people live in this world without knowing the meaning of life. They are just groping around. But once you know God's eternal purpose, it gives you the real meaning of life. You will begin to see it is worth living, and you will be given the understanding of living in a way that is worthwhile. I remember back in 1942, I was in India, and I met an elderly lady, and she told me a little bit of her life. She was in India doing something that is most unusual. She was not there as an ordinary missionary, preaching the gospel. But she felt led of the Lord to go to India to prepare some places in the best resort area in India, Nigeri Hills. She would set up some houses, and she would have servants and maids, beautiful English gardens, and her ministry was every summer, she would receive servants to her home and let them do the work of the Lord, and she will just serve. That's her ministry. Now, how did it come about? She told me. She came from a very rich family. Her parents were millionaire, and she was married to a title man. And while her parents were living, she used to travel with her parents all around the world. And after her parents died, and her husband died, she was left alone. She was a Christian. She loved the Lord. She lived in Italy. She has a marble palace there, and every summer, she would go back to England to attend the Catholic Convention. But she felt life was meaningless. She had everything, but it was meaningless. She didn't know what to do. But one year, she went back to England, and she attended a Swaneck conference. That was Mrs. Penn Lewis' conference before the Catholic Convention. And while she was attending that conference, she said she heard a young man speaking on the eternal purpose of God. And God opened her understanding. She began to realize the real meaning of life. That transformed her. And she gave her life to the Lord, and she led the life of the Lord to India. Dear brothers and sisters, do you feel your life lacks meaning? Why are you here? Why God created you? Why God saved you? What is the meaning of your being here? Unless your life is linked to the eternal purpose of God, life is meaningless. It's not worth living. But once you see your life is related to God's eternal purpose, you'll know the full meaning of life. And by the grace of God, you can live to the fullest of the life that God has given to you. So you see, it is very personal. It is very important. Not only is it important to your own personal life, but knowing God's eternal purpose explains everything to you. In our lives, in our days, many things are happening. And oftentimes we wonder, why? Why God allows these things to happen? What are the meanings of these things? Some people even blame God for allowing all these tragic things happening around us. And even something happening to us. Why? The answer is in knowing the eternal purpose of God. God has a purpose. And he works out everything according to his purpose. Sometimes we may not be able to know the particular meaning or explanation of a thing. But we do know that there is the eternal purpose of God behind everything. His purpose controls everything. Big things, small things. International, national, personal. Whatever it may be, the explanation lies in the eternal purpose of God. You know, brothers and sisters,
