It's Sunday, the Lord's day.
Every second of every day should be spent glorifying God. There really isn't any other option, once you understand that the reason God created you is for His glory.
People get caught up in semantics and rat races. Or philosophical and theological debates as to why we exist. But the truth is that everything is the creation of a sovereign God.
Evolution is the god of the godless.
Liberalism is Christianity without God.
They are both lies rooted in man's ideas.
Scriptures say that God is looking for anyone who will worship him in truth.
John 4:23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
The truth is that everything is God's creation, created out of His sovereignty to glorify Him. There is no reciprocity in that equation. Man's reasoning doesn't shape the truth, the truth gave man the freedom to reason during his election process, which occurred outside of the sphere of time.
All else is human vanity.
As Solomon so famously wrote in the book of Ecclesiastes:
Vanity of vanities; all is vanity.
Abstractions like "deserve" and "meaning" and "I" all fall short of the glory of God.
Time is of the essence for you, but is irrelevant to the truth.
God is truth, everything else is a lie.
But if God is everything, and the truth is God, then what is a lie?
Lies represent the freedom of your imagination, which God sovereignly (and graciously) gave you before the beginning of time. He gave you the choice to reject the truth, and the free will to accept the lies of men.
Freedom of the will is just coming to the realization that God is the truth, and then having the choice to accept or reject that God is the truth.
Any belief system that rejects God as the truth is a lie.
All glory to God, for He is the truth of this life, and the next.
