God determines our destiny. The choices we make only determine our present state along the way. Our destiny has already been written by God, before we were ever even born. Our choices can only delay the destiny, not determine it. So the purpose of living for me, is figuring out what it is. It makes the story no less interesting knowing that it's already been written. I still have free will of course, and so I can make choices that delay me in getting there or I can make choices that get me there faster. But either way, I am still going in God's intended direction.

"In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps." - Proverbs 16:9 NIV
"Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." - Psalm 139:16 NIV
The message version says it this way: "Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, The days of my life all prepared before I’d even lived one day."
Don't focus on the present moment so much as you should, the promised future. God's Got You! - Bri
