Some of the bigger questions:
1. What is the meaning of my life?
To satisfy the purpose of your creator(s). (Meaning must derive from purpose. Those who create you, give you meaning.)

2. Who is my creator?
Ultimately, God is your creator. God designed and created the universe and everything in it. You and others in your life can also be a part of your creation, overriding or furthering God's purpose.

3. What is God's purpose for me?
To love and be loved by your creator and others and to enjoy the life you've been given.
This can be distinguished two ways.
a. Use your built in common sense (morality/feelings)
b. Use the creator's handbook. Fortunately our creator did not abandon us. He is with us now and even lived and died as one of us. Check out his biography in "The Bible"

Note on free-will vs. predetermination:
God exists outside the constraints of time. He exists at every point in time simultaneously and knew of your birth and every decision you will/have made. But this does not mean God predetermined any of it. Pre and post are time related concepts that do not apply to God. God always has been and always will be. He determines our universe to exist, gives it the parameters of natural law, and allows us to make our own way through it (free-will). Note that these are all present tense, it would be more appropriate to use past, present, and future tense combined. God's purpose is for us to love him and one another. But a prerequisite of love is the free-will to love. So even though God wants us to love him/others, he can not ensure it. He can, however, help us if we allow him to. A miracle is God modifying natural parameters in response to human will.
