en- place. The problems of the
home were changed. The drudg-
cry and hum drum of everyday
labors were changed. The des-
pair of the future was changed
to joyful anticipation. And in
addition, the blessing of giving
purpose to our present lives.
The trouble with many people
today, they have no purpose in
living. just to exist from day to
day is not enough to please God
or bring satisfaction to the heart
of man. God has placed US on
this earth for a purpose. The first
purpose is that we might bring
glory to God. The second pur-
pose and in line with the first
is that we might accomplish
something worthwhile for time
and eternity. We can never get
our sights straight until we have
been to the cross. When we see
Christ, as our substitutionary
sacrifice, redeeming us so that
we might live to the glory of
God, then our outlook is chang
ed and life becomes worth living.
Every aspect of our lives will be
effected. We just cannot be the
same after accepting the work
accomplished on Calvary. Have
you been to the cross?
