The average person in the world today, without faith and without God and without hope, is engaged in a desperate personal search throughout his lifetime. He does not really know where he has been. He does not really know what he is doing here and now. He does not know where he is going.<\/p>\n
The sad commentary is that he is doing it all on borrowed time and borrowed money and borrowed strength\u2014and he already knows that in the end he will surely die! It boils down to the bewildered confession of many that \u201cwe have lost God somewhere along the way.\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n
Man, made more like God than any other creature, has become less like God than any other creature. Created to reflect the glory of God, he has retreated sullenly into his cave\u2014reflecting only his own sinfulness.<\/p>\n
Certainly it is a tragedy above all tragedies in this world that man, made with a soul to worship and praise and sing to God\u2019s glory, now sulks silently in his cave. Love has gone from his heart. Light has gone from his mind. Having lost God, he blindly stumbles on through this dark world to find only a grave at the end.<\/p>\n
