Welcome
The Battle for Life
Life is a battle, no matter how you choose to live or define it. Happiness and suffering are inescapable, woven into the fabric of our existence. But in the end, will it all be worth the sacrifice? Will the path you walk and the choices you make be worth dying for?
What are you giving your life for, and will it stand, will it prove to be worth it—or will it testify against you? This is the most crucial question you will ever answer. The foundation of your life is a matter of life and death—far too important to leave to chance.
Don't climb the mountain of life only to find despair at the summit. Don't follow a path that leads to a dead end. Don't spend your time here only to realize you got it all wrong. Truth is within reach, but it lies beyond this world—waiting for those who are willing to seek it, no matter the cost.

The Meaning of Life
The Quest to Find What to Believe In
Some people long to understand the meaning of life, seeking assurance that their existence has purpose—as they should. Questions arise: Who created us? Why are we here? What foundation should guide the plans and purpose of our lives?
Everyone begins with a theory about life, hoping to one day prove it true. For most, these theories center on God, spirituality, science, education, self-discovery, health, fame, fortune, family, or love—foundations upon which many attempt to build their lives.
Evidential Searching
Most of us search for answers by gathering evidence from the world, science, and the successes and failures of others, hoping it will validate our theories.
Testing the Validity of Our Theories
Once someone embraces a theory, they set out to test its validity, treating it as a treasure worth dedicating their life to.
The Results
For some, their theory never truly answers life’s deepest questions, yet they settle—believing it’s “good enough,” “it works for me,” or simply the best they can find.
Others resign themselves to waiting, hoping someone else will eventually provide the answer.
Some find their theories failing, discarding one in favor of another, trapped in an endless cycle of searching for meaning.
Then there are those whose theories collapse entirely, leaving them disillusioned. Tired of the constant pursuit, they grow cynical and choose to live however they please—until, if ever, real proof is found.
Finally, many are drawn to theories that, at least on the surface, seem promising. Inspired by the success of others, they are enticed to follow the same path, hoping to achieve similar results. However, what they perceive as success is often just an illusion, appealing to them because it fits their desires or expectations.
Life can sometimes feel like an experiment, as if we are mere test subjects—guinea pigs or rats running through mazes in search of a prize, endlessly running on treadmills, placing blind faith in those conducting the test. Many believe science will eventually provide the answers, but what if we die before those answers are found? In that case, we become the ultimate test subjects—our existence reduced to mere data in an experiment, sacrificing our lives in the hope that someone else might one day uncover the truth. And if the answer is never found, that sacrifice becomes even more tragic—our lives given up for nothing.
The Only True Foundation
The only foundation worth building our lives on is a truth that can be proven. Every theory crafted by man has failed to answer life’s deepest questions, proving that man alone cannot provide the answer. That is why we need something beyond ourselves.
No one can prove God—but God can prove Himself to those who genuinely seek the truth. It’s not about standing before a God you don’t believe in and demanding proof. It’s about surrender—letting go of every failed theory and saying, “If You are real, I am ready to be Yours.” When that surrender is sincere, God will reveal Himself. He will prove that He is the God of the Bible, that His sovereignty and power are real, and that His promises are trustworthy.
God is not just a theory—He is the only truth that will be proven for all eternity.
"His love never wavers—even in my failures, He holds me and never lets me go."

A Father's Love
I had a father who, from the moment I was old enough to understand, told me I was incompetent, incapable—a loser who would never amount to anything. His words made me hate myself, resent him, and stripped me of any sense of self-worth. Believing I was a lost cause, he gave up on me, and our relationship quickly fell apart.
Because my relationship with my father was so broken, I began searching for fatherly love out in the world.
I found another father—one who told me I was great, that I could be anything I wanted, and that the world was mine for the taking. He convinced me I could chase every desire, do anything and everything I pleased. For a while, life felt good—fun, full of excitement and freedom. But he was a liar. His words were bait, and his only goal was to drag me down into the same pit of emptiness where he lived (Matthew 4:1–11).
Then another Father found me—a perfect Father. He told me the truth: that I was incompetent, incapable, and that without Him, I would never become anything of lasting worth. But unlike the others, He still loved me. He didn’t abandon me—instead, He died for me so He could save me and help me.
He said He wanted to teach me, shape me, and make me more like Him. He gave me something far greater than self-esteem—He gave me God-esteem, a Fatherly love that can never be taken from me, no matter where I am, who I am, or what I’ve done.
My earthly father couldn’t love me because I never measured up. My second father—Satan—only pretended to love me, all while leading me to destruction. But Jesus loves me unconditionally, for He gave His life for me even when I was still His enemy (Romans 5:8-10).
I have a children now, and my deepest desire is to die to myself and let Jesus live through me—for them. I want them to meet the Father I found in Jesus, so He can shape their lives just as He’s shaped mine. I pray that the same gift my Father gave to me will be passed on to them, so that when I leave this earth, they will still walk with the Father I found in Christ.
Storing Up Your Treasures
I've tasted the best this world has to offer—flirted with success, stumbled through failure, and lingered in mediocrity. I've known love and felt the ache of losing those I held dear. I've heard every theory, opinion, and philosophy about the meaning of life. And now, as I look back, with time slipping through my fingers and the door to my departure drawing near, I can say with absolute certainty—none of it was the answer.
The moments, the triumphs, the heartbreaks—all of it fades. Like possessions hoarded over a lifetime, they become nothing more than relics of a past that drifts further from sight. No matter how much I try to give them meaning, they are but rusted antiques—fragments of a world that will one day vanish, leaving nothing behind.
I am grateful that God has opened my eyes, shifting my gaze from the emptiness of the past to the true treasure found in Jesus Christ. No longer searching for meaning in what was, I now look ahead with certainty, knowing that my future—and my eternity—rests in Him, the answer.
Questions & Answers
Evil and Suffering
If God is loving, why is there so much evil and suffering in the world?
Rejecting God's existence because of suffering doesn’t eliminate the problem—it only leaves us with the same question. Without God, why does evil exist? The answer remains the same: humanity.
We are the ones who bring evil into the world and cause suffering. Sin has corrupted us to the point that we cannot live in peace with one another—or even within ourselves—as we battle our own personal demons.
Why Doesn’t a Loving God End Evil and Suffering?
Why do we allow prisoners to suffer instead of making prisons a place of comfort? Why do we let those struggling with addiction hit rock bottom instead of rescuing them at every turn?
Because true change requires transformation. If we constantly shield people from the consequences of their choices without leading them to real change, we only enable their behavior, trapping them in a cycle of destruction.
God desires the same for us—not just temporary relief, but complete renewal. He calls us to seek transformation, receive a new heart, and turn away from our sinful and rebellious nature.
We chose to leave our Father, seeking independence, only to find ourselves imprisoned by the very world we embrace. Yet, when suffering comes, like children, we cry out for Him to save us—only to return to our old ways once the trouble passes. We fail to realize that true peace doesn’t come from temporary rescue but from returning to our Father and uniting in one spirit—His.
God is perfect, and anything that rebels against His holiness is evil. Once before, He cleansed the world of wickedness through the flood. Is that truly what we want?
One day, God will bring an end to all evil and suffering. Like a judge pronouncing a final sentence, He will execute justice upon the wicked. But for now, He waits—giving time for those who are willing to turn to Him, be transformed, and find true life in Him.
If we truly desire an end to suffering and pain, it must begin with us. We must stop living for ourselves and turn back to God, allowing His Spirit to work through us and bring the peace we so desperately seek.
Our narcissism distorts our perspective, causing us to see things from a selfish point of view—upside down. True change begins with us—sinful people who have repeatedly proven that we cannot live in peace, not with a perfect God.

Good News
A holy and perfect God, lacking nothing, created everything—including us. He made us as an extension of His love, crafting a family that would glorify His perfection. But He knew that for His creation to fully grasp the depth of His majesty, they would need to grow and learn. They would need to experience both light and darkness. To open that door, He allowed Satan to play his part.
In their immaturity and lack of understanding, humanity sought independence, and God granted them the choice. But in trying to exist apart from Him, they discovered that they could not live in peace with one another. Evil, hatred, conflict, war, and death took root, revealing themselves as the cancer of sin that brought death into the world. In the Old Testament, the world spiraled into darkness and chaos, and some cried out to God for salvation (Exodus 2:23-25).
In response, the holy God came down in the form of a cloud, dwelling among them. Yet, despite their laws, rules, religion, and sacrifices, they found that none could save them from their sin and lawlessness. They learned that no effort of their own could make them holy enough to stand in His presence. Through this, they also understood that God was not trying to improve their lives in this dark world, but rather to save them from it—to bring them back into the light.
God now asks the world, “Do you want to live in the light? Do you realize that you can never be good enough on your own? There is nothing you can do to pay for your sins or to keep them at bay. The evil that dwells within you cannot be overcome through your own efforts. Do you want to live under grace?”
The Good News
So, God sent grace in the form of Jesus. Jesus came to this dark world, forsook it, and lived sinlessly. He bore our sins on the cross at Calvary, tearing the curtain that separated us from God. In doing so, He gave us a way to restore our relationship with the Father, escape death, return to the light, and find life again.
If you accept God's grace—the Good News—repent, and turn to Him, you are restored to your Father. You will be filled with His love and truth, which will stir a deep desire to seek Christ. As you follow Him, your heart will long to obey God, fulfilling His law of righteousness. His love will flow through you, bringing glory to Him, just as He intended from the very beginning.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Oh, that I could be like Your Son—to walk in perfect love, speak life-giving words, and surrender everything in the ultimate act of obedience. That I could know Your love so deeply that living apart from You would be unbearable.
Father, shape me into the image of Your Son. Transform this sinful, broken man into something radiant, something that reflects Your beauty. Let me shine with His light. And if fear, doubt, or a wavering heart holds me back, then, Lord, strengthen my faith—help my unbelief.
Oh, Father, how I long to break free from the grip of this world and the enemy who relentlessly pursues me. To be fully alive in You, to dwell in Your love until it overflows from every part of my being.
Forgive me for my sin—for my unfaithfulness in trading You for the fleeting deceptions of this world. You have given me the power to resist temptation, yet I have failed to walk in the strength You have placed within me. Instead of crucifying my flesh daily, I carry it like a weight I cannot escape, and because of this, I am powerless, my faith too weak to overcome.
Father, forgive me. Give me wisdom today to walk by the Spirit, to put to death the desires of the flesh, and to live in the victory You have already won for me.
"At the end of your life, will it all have made sense?"
