Synopsis
YOU WILL NEVER FIND TRUE JOY IN LIFE UNTIL YOU FIND YOUR GOD GIVEN PURPOSE FOR LIVING.You may be wondering: Why am I here? Why am I experiencing all of this heartache? What is God doing? Is there more to life than just my 9 to 5 boring existence?
The author had exactly the same questions. As he climbed each mountain, forded each steam, fought each battle, and crossed each desert, an oasis eventually came into view. It was no mirage; it was the source of life giving water for a weary traveler.
From a simple beginning to a humble conclusion, joy increased exponentially at each fork in the road. The same joy is yours for the asking.
