Searching for Significance
One of the basic needs of humanity is significance. We spend our whole lives trying to do something meaningful, something that will be remembered, something that will make an impact. Many times we start off looking for success, and sometimes we even get it. But when that leaves us empty we start looking for significance. And that need in and of itself can be an argument for God. If there weren't a God, then everything truly would be meaningless, just like Solomon talks about in Ecclesiastes. Take God out of the picture and as Erwin McManus says in his book 'Soul Cravings' "...all your future holds for you is a splat and then its over." So where does the desire for significance come from? I would argue God. You may not be able to 'prove God in a tube' but take Him out of the equation and you can feel it in your gut.
Enjoy the Journey
