Purpose in Life

I appreciated this quote from Boundless Webzine:

Why do you think The Purpose-Driven Life has sold 25 million copies? Why do you think Wild at Heart has been so popular with men? These books offer modern readers an opportunity to rediscover timeless Biblical truth in order to restore purpose and vision to their lives. Unfortunately, these books have little to say about family. Yet family is woven throughout the Bible as an element of purpose — especially in the initial creation and commissioning of humans that takes place in Genesis.
Take a look at Genesis 1:26-29 and Genesis 2:18-24. Theologians find in these two passages a commissioning for men to get out in the world and to be stewards of God’s creation — creating and developing the world in His image. It’s also clear, however, that God is directing men to take on that challenge and responsibility in partnership with a wife. Using strong verbs, God calls a man to “leave father and mother and be united to his wife” and to “be fruitful and increase in number.”
Young men longing for purpose in life should recognize that Genesis offers a rough outline for their calling. While it doesn’t tell them what creative or developing work they should take on, it does indicate to them that a wife and family will be central to accomplishing that work.
