The purpose of something is the reason for which it exist or the manufacturer's original intent for making it.Thus the purpose of a thing cannot be discovered by asking another thing only the manufacturer knows why he crated the product the way he did.
God is your source/manufacturer, he knows why he gave you life and endowed you with personality,talents, and ambition that makes you unique.He want to discover why you were born so you can fulfill your mandate. A Sense of purpose gives life meaning.it moves you beyond existence to a fulfilling and productive life(EPH 1:11)
SAUL was a Zealous jew who intensely persecuted the early church and tried to destroy it,but God had another plan for Saul's life of which Saul was ignorant until he had a Damascus Encounter that changed his life forever.Saul the pharisee became Paul the Apostle. Although the encounter with your purpose need to be as dramatic as saul's was you need to discover the purpose for which God created you. i've met many successful people who have been dissatisfied with their accomplishments.They have pursed goals and met them,but they have no fulfillment and continually ask why.
Accomplishments without a sense of purpose are meaningless. Life without and understanding of life's purpose,Leads to disillusionment and emptiness.
