Something that has been a strange thing too me is that many things in life seems to me to be a paradox.
I spent years thinking that nothing really matters.
Like Ecclesiastes:
“Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher. “Vanity of vanities! All [that is done without God’s guidance] is vanity [futile, meaningless—a wisp of smoke, a vapor that vanishes, merely chasing the wind].” What advantage does man have from all his work Which he does under the sun (while earthbound)? One generation goes and another generation comes, But the earth remains forever.
Ecclesiastes 1:2‭-‬4 AMP

Yet I find that everything matters. From the smallest bug to the greatest solar system.

This is a strange revelation to me and both depressing and comforting.
Don't know where I'm going with this.. just sharing thoughts...
God bless!
 
It matters in that life is a gift from God and so has value.
It matters because we have the opertunity to get into a right relationship with God and enjoy him for ever or regret for ever that we didn't do anything about getting to know God.
 
We worry about things that don't matter, and so often miss the things that are important to God and our salvation.
