Shincheonji Bible:What does life mean to you?

What does life mean to you?

From the dictionary, life means the existence of an individual human being or animal, and the condition that the capacity for growth, reproduction, and continual change preceding death.

But even without the dictionary, I am sure we all know the meaning of life.

However, all individuals have their own criteria for life through their personal experiences.

The meaning of life to a certain group of people may be defined as having the necessary things in order to live such as water, air, and food. Some others may see having a family as life. But let me ask you a question. What does life mean to you?

 

Life exists everywhere and that is evidence of how precious life is.  All the trees, flowers, and animals know that their lives are precious and always try to protect themselves to live. Who created the animals and the trees to live this way? If life were not precious, then the animals and the trees would not do their very best to live as long as they can. Why does a deer run from a tiger? Even a deer understands how precious its own life is. Therefore shouldn’t we think about how precious life is? The heart of understanding what is precious cannot be something that was taught. Deers do not teach their doe’s how to view life as precious. Then they must have been born with it and someone must have planted that heart. Who must have planted that heart? Would someone who doesn’t see life as precious plant the heart to know what is precious? No. That means that someone who sees life as precious must have planted the heart to know what is precious among all creation and that is life itself.

Next time we will see planted this in the first place.
