As we seek for meaning and purpose in life, we may wonder, “What is it all about?” Along the road of seeking happiness we may have felt hindered, hurt, hopeless, empty or unsettled. We try filling the emptiness with more and more of what we think is good, or to dull the pain. We seek for solutions as we go about our lives, but are not truly content with what we find. That was me, in good measure, in one direction, and then another. Life was my playground, and all about me. I sought happiness in my pleasure; a life of hedonism. What could be more satisfying than a life of pleasure? But that life left me empty. Though I did not want to admit it, I was lost. All my hopes and dreams never delivered me, or brought lasting joy. Although an irreligious man, I started reading the Bible. What could this ancient book bring me? Yet through the reading of it, I found that all I have ever needed was in the universal gospel message of Jesus. He is seeking the lost and finding them, even this day, filling the emptiness, removing despair, and bringing great hope and abundant life. This book may speak to you, through the gospel in each chapter, uniquely. May you find, as I did, that the living Savior is daily seeking and saving the lost.
