What Was I Made For [Relationship] Devotions Day 5

Created for Connection

Devotional
Understanding our purpose brings clarity to our lives. We were created for relationship with God - it's the fundamental reason for our existence. When we live aligned with this purpose, everything else falls into place. Conversely, life feels chaotic and unfulfilling when we try to live outside of this divine design. Through Jesus, we can return to this original purpose, experiencing the deep connection with God that our hearts long for. This relationship isn't just for now - it's an eternal reality that begins here and continues forever.

Bible Verse
"Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God’s people everywhere, I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God." - Ephesians 1:15-17

Reflection Question
How has your life been different during times when you've been closely connected to God versus times when you've felt distant?

Quote
That's the reason life is so chaotic outside of relationship with God. Because we are trying to live life outside of its very purpose and reason.

Prayer
Lord, thank You for creating me for relationship with You. Help me to live fully in this purpose, finding my satisfaction and meaning in knowing You. Amen.
