Yes Yes Yes....we can
God's love is unconditional 100% pure.
He hates our sin, but He loves us - that is why He took the punishment for our sin on the cross of Calvary.
The Bible says: I know the plans I have for you...says the Lord...plans for good and not for evil. Plans to give you a future and a hope!
God has a wonderful plan for each of our lives, if we will only come to Him humbly, asking Him to forgive our sins, and turn our will over to Him.
Many people are afraid of what they might have to give up if they become a Christian. Its only those things that are harmful to us that God asks us to leave behind. They are nothing in comparison with what takes the place of those things.
I have been a Christian now for almost 37 years, and my life would be hopeless and empty without God. He has brought life to me in abundance, joy and strength to overcome the difficulties of life, and the assurance of a home in Heaven one day.

Through God's love anything is possible. God will lead to toward your purpose as long as u open your heart to him and let him lead the way.

God didn't put us here just to indulge ourselves or have a good time (at least in the way you probably mean it). God put us here for a purpose—and that purpose is to live for Him and experience the joy of His presence every day.
The problem is, God wants to be at the center of our lives‐but so do we. We want to run our own lives and be free to do anything we please because we think that must be the path to happiness. But when we live only for ourselves, we find it doesn't bring us happiness after all. In fact, a life of self-indulgence only leads to emptiness. The Bible warns, "There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death" (Proverbs 14:12).
But God has another way for us—His way! It alone is the way of peace, and it alone will bring us true happiness. Not only that, but His path alone will lead us to heaven. What is that way? It is the way of the cross—Christ's cross. On the cross Christ took away all our sins and selfishness, and now He wants to come into our lives and replace them with His love.
Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10). Turn to Christ today and ask Him to come into your life. Then ask Him to begin changing you from within—and He will, as you yield your life to Him and allow His Word, the Bible, to shape your life every day.

Yes. Through God' love, you can do anything, and if you pray, He will answer you because He loves you so much. He doesn't want to make things hard for you, but it's your decision. He gave you free will and you are allowed to use it, so it's up to you. Just open your heart and mind to the Holy Spirit and pray.

It's the ONLY way to find true purpose...
and even those of us who believe have to pray daily to hold true to that purpose and follow through.

I've done OK with my life but I'm not sure it's all because of God's love.
God loves all of us.
God helps those who help themselves so I'll take part of the credit myself.

Yes, but it may not be easy to interpret, understand or realize God's Love.
In Bhakti Yoga we consult Guru, Sastra, and Sadhu to understand God's Love.

Your purpose is to love God and go tell others of His love for you and them.

No, by following "god's love" which is just a figment of man's imagination you are still just creating a purpose for yourself. Not a real purpose.
