Does Your Life Make Sense?

“You should live your life in such a way that it would make no sense unless God exists.”- Cardinal Souhard
Never be afraid to ask yourself the big questions:
  • Is there truth?
  • Can truth be known?
  • Is truth universal to all?
  • Does God exist?
  • Is the Bible reliable?
  • Is God active in the world?
  • Aren't all religions the same?
  • Who am I?
  • What was I created for?
  • What is the meaning of life?
  • What is my purpose?
  • How am I to live?
  • What kind of life (vocation) and I called to?
  • Why is there death?
  • Why is there suffering?
  • Why do bad things happen to good people?
  • Why do good things happen?
  • Why is there something rather than nothing?
  • What is love?
  • What happens after someone dies?
  • How do we determine right from wrong?
  • How do I go to heaven?
  • Does God answer prayer?
Are you satisfied with your answers; and maybe even more important a question: are you satisfied with your life or is there something missing? Regardless, don't be afraid of asking big questions, but always be ready for God to provide a big answer.

Never be afraid of the answer to big questions. You were made to ask them, and even more so, you were made to find the answer in a relationship with Jesus.

Fr. Barron hits a home run with this video, while he touches on some of these big questions.
It is a bit philosophical, but worth watching and reflecting on.
