Jesus emphasized, "Don't worry about what you're going to eat, drink, or wear! Isn't the purpose of life more important than these things?" (Matthew 6:25)
But, what is that purpose?
The answer is framed by what I describe as God's metanarrative that flows like a constant, thematic stream throughout God's Word:
"God desired to have many sons (non-gender), who would look like Jesus and reign with Him for eternity."
Life's purpose revolves around this "character" construction project by the chief architect on behalf of His Father-to become the person God destined us to be. Jesus provides a blueprint of how we can arrive at that eternal destiny in our pursuit of sonship with the Father!
