Our purpose in life, as God originally created man, is 1) glorify God
and enjoy fellowship with Him, 2) have good relationships with others,
Research shows that finding your purpose is linked to living longer.
Researchers surveyed nearly 7,000 older adults on the relationship
between mortality and finding your purpose. Participants who did not
have a strong sense of meaning in their lives were more than twice as
likely to die prematurely as those who had figured out their purpose in
life. Having a sense of purpose also reduced the incidence of
cardiovascular events like heart attack and stroke.
