The Meaning of Life: Part 2

In Part 1, we explored the search for the meaning of life and discovered that the answers we are looking for cannot be found in this world alone. The meaning of life begins and ends with God, and it can be summarized in one word: love.

Everything in life flows from this one attribute. When we live a life rooted in love, we gain clarity about our purpose, our identity, and God’s plans for our lives.

Jesus made this clear when He was asked about the greatest commandment:

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.”— Matthew 6:14–15

This scripture reveals why so many people—including celebrities and the world at large—continue searching for the meaning of life. As discussed in Part 1, the search is prompted by an emptiness in the soul. That emptiness is not success, money, or recognition—it is the absence of love rooted in God.

The Bible tells us that we were created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26). And also reminds us in 1 John 4:8 that “whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.”

Being created in God’s image means that every person is born with the capacity for love because love is part of God’s nature. We were designed to live in relationship—with God first, and then with others.

When we believe that love is absent from our lives, insecurity begins to take root. We struggle with self-worth, identity, and value. These struggles often surface in our relationships, finances, work environments, and even our spiritual walk.

The enemy (satan) uses wounds, rejection, and disappointment to distort our understanding of love. But God’s answer is not condemnation—it is healing, restoration, and truth.

To overcome the effects of living without love, we must be willing to take intentional steps toward healing:

Acknowledge your hurt. Healing begins when we stop denying the pain and bring it honestly before God.

Seek God’s healing. God is not distant from our broken places. He is close to the wounded and restores the heart that is surrendered to Him.

Refuse the victim mindset. Our past experiences do not define us. Through Christ, we are an overcomer, not a victim.

Believe your value to God. Our worth is not based on what happened to us or what others said about us. We are deeply loved, chosen, and valuable to God.

Living in love and forgiveness is not optional—it is central to the meaning of life. When we receive God’s love and allow it to heal us, we are then empowered to extend that love to others.

>This is where purpose is found.

>This is where freedom begins.

>This is God’s answer to the meaning of life.
