To rediscover the Father is to rediscover the purpose of our creation. Many people walk the earth without the fundamental understanding of the reason for their existence. Unfortunately, some people in the Church either have forgotten their purpose of being or may have never known their reason for being.
Many cultures call a cause for being or purpose by many different names. The French call it “raison d’être”; the Japanese call it “Ikigai”; the Americans call it “your purpose”. God calls it not by a name but by an eternal question: “Where are you Adam?” And Israel responds with an answer: Priesthood
It is simple. One needs to return to the Garden again and fundamentally look at the Father’s intent and purpose for creation and more specifically: His rationale for the creation of Mankind. If you have the doldrums, the winter blues or a general melancholic attitude, it is because you have lost your reason for being; you have forgotten the eternal question: “Where are you Adam?”
“And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?” So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.” Genesis 3:8-10
