DESCRIPTION

Jesus taught us the Lord's prayer as our mission is to bring heaven on earth and share the wonderful message of God's love for all mankind. When we pray, "Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Your name," we are to remember that our fellow human beings are God's children.

We are living in a hectic world with little a time to reflect on life and God's purpose for our lives. But we cannot live a life of pleasure all the time. A life without God is a life of futility as the book of Ecclesiastes teaches us.

At the same time, a life with God does not guarantee that we will not encounter pain and suffering in life. The dying has taught me how critical it is to find meaning in suffering. The book of Job is a vivid account of our struggle to find answers to the unanswerable questions that suffering and pain throws at us. The truth is that the answers can only be found in living out the questions.
