He purposed for us to live for God’s glory:

‘Everyone who is called by My Name, Whom I have created for My glory, Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.” ‘

Isaiah 43:7

He purposed for us to find true meaning for God’s glory:

‘But you are a chosen race , a royal priesthood , a consecrated nation , a [special] people for God’s own possession , so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. ‘

1 Peter 2:9

He purposed that we live for God’s glory for a specific amount of time:

‘There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven—

A time to be born and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted. A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up. A time to weep and a time to laugh; A time to mourn and a time to dance. A time to throw away stones and a time to gather stones; A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing. A time to search and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep and a time to throw away. A time to tear apart and a time to sew together; A time to keep silent and a time to speak. A time to love and a time to hate; A time for war and a time for peace.

What profit is there for the worker from that in which he labors? I have seen the task which God has given to the sons of men with which to occupy themselves. ‘

Ecclesiastes 3:1-10
