What Is The Meaning Of Life?

What is life all about?
Are we here by accident or chance?
If we are meant to be here, then why?
None of us ask to be born.

I was born into a Christian family in Papua New Guinea.  My parents were missionaries at the time but we had to come home to New Zealand because my mum and I had malaria.  At the age of four I went to church in Kaeo and listened to a man in Sunday School who read 1 John 1:9 which says, “If we confess our sins He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”  I also heard how Christ died for the things that we had done wrong.  Because it made sense I talked to my mum but it went no further until I went to stay with a friend and went to his church and saw the same guy with the same message and at this stage became a Christian.

Isaiah 43:1-2 has also been given to me by different people at the right time.  “Fear not for I have redeemed you.  I have called you by name and you are mine.  When you pass through the waters I will be with you, and the rivers will not overwhelm you, when you pass through the fire you will not be burned.  The hard trials that come against you will not hurt you – For you are precious to me and I love you.”  God doesn’t say that we won’t go through trials, but he does promise to go through them with us.

For those of you I do not know very personally, I’d like to share some of my background with you to illustrate how powerfully God has worked in my life as of late:
