EphesiansEgzanp

Have you ever found yourself feeling like life has become monotonous? Sometimes, when our focus drifts from what is most important, it’s easy to feel like every day is the same. We can struggle to find purpose and meaning when we’re focused on our own problems, our own circumstances, and our own desires. The phrase, “When you lose your why, you lose your way.” applies all too well when we find ourselves growing apathetic and complacent.

We must remember the ultimate “why” for living. When we read this passage from Ephesians 4, the passion and conviction of the words seem to jump off the page. We can see clearly that there is a singular source of hope, salvation, life, and purpose: God alone. There is no other substitute. There is nothing else to add and nothing that can be taken away from Him. From Him, we receive everything we need for this life and the next. Through Him, we have the opportunity to make a difference in the world around us for His glory. When we understand this “why,” everything else fades. This is what unifies all people: hope through faith in Jesus.
