Why are we here? We came here to sip the honey, and we find our hands and feet sticking to it. We are caught, though we came to catch. We came to enjoy; we are being enjoyed. We came to rule; we are being ruled. We came to work; we are being worked. All the time, we find that. And this comes into every detail of our life. We are being worked upon by other minds, and we are always struggling to work on other minds. We want to enjoy the pleasures of life; and they eat into our vitals. We want to get everything from nature, but we find in the long run that nature takes everything from us depletes us, and casts us aside. Had it not been for this, life would have been all sunshine. Never mind! With all its failures and successes, with all its joys and sorrows, it can be one succession of sunshine, if only we are not caught.
What are you to do when you are placed in the world? Give up everything to Him, resign yourself to Him, and there will be no more trouble for you. Then you will come to know that everything is done by His will.
Imagine for a moment, WHO God IS. He doesn't need anyone for anything but what anyone needs or wants....love. The Ten Commandments weren't made for Him but for us. Our reason for being here is so that we may be found worthy to spend forever in the presence of God. Worthy by merits of love and mercy, forgiveness and kindness, by understanding that God is the good one, not us. We are mere mortal people, not supernatural except where God allows us to be. God wants to end up with those who freely choose to know Him and understand Him and to do so can only lead to loving Him. It is truly a win/win situation.
my reason for existence is to bring glory to God :) in everything i do, i try to bring glory and honor to Him and to Him alone. when im down, God brings me back up. when im happy, i praise God. (even when im down i praise God :P) that is my sole reason for living. and He has put me here and i can love others, and hopefully share His love with others, thru my love for them, as well. i hope to someday help others in what i do, more than i can right now as a teenager. but even as a teen, i pray that i can help others, be with them through hard times, and love them.
God. Ever since i found Him its like i felt more alive, like i finally had answers. He saved me from a world of confusion and not knowing, a world of depression. perhaps im ignorant, but to me God will always be the only reason for anything. That fact is practically stained into my heart. when i hear other people tell me otherwise, its sorta like i dont hear them fully. Sure, i still respect them for what they think. But i know the truth, the truth that saved me. And id sooner die than believe anything else
Just being Irene. Im one of those people who will change the world. Ever since i was born every doctor, teacher, relative, person who came in contact with me would tell my mom "shes one of those people who will either make or break the world" Im extremely manipulative & i influence alot of people. Its whether i want to use my smarts for good or evil. I am extremely confident & i believe in myself like no other. I guess we just have to wait & see what my 'reason' was :)
The reason for my existence is to me a mother, a lover, a wife, a daughter, a friend, a aunt, a neice, a cousin, and so on. Im here to give love and support the ones i love. My whole existence revolves around my family, my fiance, and my children. When i wake up and my son smiles at me and calls me mommy - thats why im here.
My reason for existence is so that I can get the eternal paradise I was supposed to have had when Adam and Eve made the wrong choice. If I were Eve, I'd have asked the devil why he was still here if the fruit could make one like God and why was he trying to get me to do something that clearly opposed my Creator and Father.
Just stating the facts to my heart. Once i accepted Jesus, man i cant even describe what happened. Imagine yourself as so dirty, caked with dirt from ur head to ur toes, and then one day its like all that dirt is gone. He is my Savior. Plain and simple :)
What is the reason for my existence? My parents slept together, very possibly under the influence of alcohol. We don't like to think our lives begin under such circumstances, but very often they do.
I really don't think things such as me living needs a reason. I'll just live my life how I see fit.
The only purpose I think I see myself following is being the change I want to see in the world.
I believe that I'm here to make a positive difference somewhere, somehow, for something or someone. This is how I want to live my life, and this is what drives me to trying every day.
i believe my reason 4 life is to find the one person out thair looking to find omeone like me to love and who i would adoor back :)
to test people, see how much they can take. To bring peopole darkness so they can find the light
To be a source of amusement to whatever higher being has decided to keep me alive.
The purpose behind all life is to survive and pass on favorable traits.
