This is one of the sweetest songs about REASON FOR LIVING to me that I had ever come across, although to be honest I did 2 song covers for this week's edition but MEANINGLESS BY ANTHONY EVANS stood out to be more needful to be shared.
I wouldnt want anyone to hurry through it as it contains quite a lot of messages for everyone actually.
How does living a life without a meaning look like?
I pray none of us knows what it feels like, because it would nothing.
So sharing made me wanna talk a bit more about what really gives my life a meaning, what is the reason for living for me?
First I usually want to know why I am alive and differentiate it from the reason I am alive.
Why I am Alive. This is mostly connected to somethings that happened in the past, things that saved my life, sacrifices made by people who love me that I might live, survive and thrive. I owe all the gratitude to my parents on earth and how they have played key roles in this part, I also realize that God's hand kept me through it all and made me victorious through thin an thick seasons.
The reason I am alive on the other hand is me looking forward to what I live for, and how I m trying to attain it and please God.
1Co 15:19 KJV If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
There is more after this life and my eternity and where I ll spend it keeps my wheel moving each time I think about it.
It is the reason for my living, what I live for. Some call it heaven, others paradise.
You have not lived until you know why you are alive, and the reason for being alive
So back to the song, I am not helpless trying to figure it out, how to survive, I know a life with God gives peace and ease to man's toils. It will all be meaningless without him in my life.
See what I meant about the thoughtfulness of this song. Here is the lyrics.
*Anthony Evans: MEANINGLESS
Chasing a dream so many things
Capture my affection
Running ahead I've been a mess
Losing my perspective
This is my obsession
Always chasing the wind
Left with nothing in the end
It's meaningless without You
It's meaningless, these treasures I possess
Only You, You satisfy and only You sustain my life
Without You, oh, it's meaningless
Feeling You near, it's coming clear
You've got my attention
You're filling the void, killing the noise
Focus my direction
With intimate insistence
You overwhelm my senses
All I need is before me now
It's meaningless without You
It's meaningless, these treasures I possess
Only You, You satisfy and only You sustain my life
Without You, oh
I'm breathing but I can't survive
I'm living but I'm not alive
Without You, without You
It's meaningless without You
Meaningless, these treasures I possess
Only You, You satisfy and only You sustain my life
Without You, oh
It's meaningless without You
It's meaningless, these treasures I possess
Only You, You satisfy and only You sustain my life
Without You, oh, without You, oh, it's meaningless
Without You, it's meaningless
My life without You, it's meaningless*
