Your Question:
how do i make sense of this senseless world?
Answer:
My friend, I can sense the weight of the question you're asking. How do we make sense of a world that often seems senseless? As a pastor, I've walked alongside many people who've grappled with this very question. For me, it's a matter of perspective. We tend to see the world through our own subjective experiences, our own limited understanding. But as Christians, we believe that there's a deeper reality, a world beyond our own perceptions. As I read the Bible, I'm reminded that our understanding of the world is not just about what we can see or touch, but about what we can't see or touch. There's a world of meaning and purpose that's hidden from us, but revealed through faith. It's a world where God is at work, shaping and guiding our lives in ways we can't fully comprehend. This doesn't mean we have all the answers, but it means we have a foundation for understanding that goes beyond our own limited perspectives. As I look at my own life, I see the senselessness of the world all around me. I see suffering, injustice, and pain. But I also see the beauty of creation, the love of my family, and the hope of the Gospel. And in those moments, I'm reminded that there's more to this world than what we can see or touch. There's a deeper reality, a world of meaning and purpose that's waiting to be discovered. And it's in that world that I find hope, even in the midst of senselessness.
