I awake this morning; the truth is I don’t know why, but on the other hand, I know why I am getting out of bed. Have you ever considered why you woke from your sleep and someone else did not? That someone who got you out of sleep, who really is it, and why? Is there a purpose in mind why? Since you and I could not, it’s needed someone greater than us, that someone is God. How do I know? God is the one who said each of us will die one day, and everyone who ever lived has died since. We don’t need any other argument.
If we have a purpose for getting out of bed, He has a purpose for waking us up, which also includes the reason we get out of bed. God’s reason for us being alive today is no secret; it is simply that we will glorify Him in what we do today and each day that we are alive, expecting us to do the best that we can and helping someone along the way that you see in need of help and you can. At this point, we must be instructed that the good that you do will come back to you one day, so likewise, the bad, and God cannot be glorified in the bad.
When all is said and done for the day, the question still remains, what do you come back to you before you die?
