sometimes i think, whats the purpose of our ife here on earth? why we are born? does God have a purpose for us here on earth aside to procreate?
sometimes i feel i have no purpose here on earth. we cannot bring our eartgly riches if we dies. i feel so empty inside and worthless.
How about you, do you already know what's your ultimate purpose here on earth? are we made for nothing?

I am a God fearing man, with a good understanding of many faiths & I still ask myself that question!!
This may sound crazy, but I think the main purpose of life is to help others, using the gifts you were born with. I have been down that road of feeling empty and worthless, I think you need to figure out some things that make you happy and surround yourself with them (whether they be people or things) and go from there. The little things in life are what matter the most (very cliche I know), but it is the truth!

Hello bender and stanzi! maybe, that's is one of the reason of our life here on earth.
There's a qoute of life that i found in a book that says, " Until we recognize that life is not just something to be enjoyed but rather is a task each of us is assigned, we'll never find meaning in our lives and we'll never be truly happy.." i question myself, what is that task? is it the task that we need to help others? the task for us to live the life our God wants us to live?

Only God know the real purpose of our existence.
Personally I believe that my existence is out of His blessing. I am thankful to have life here on earth because I know that I am one in million-millions of those who were not able to have life here on earth.
I believe also that the "Love of God" had made life possible for me. I am wanting to return His goodness by glorifying Him in all I do, even though it is the hardest thing to do on earth.
God made us in His image and likeness. He wanted us to become His children. But God gave us the will and wisdom to do what we want to do. And He is always willing to love us no matter what we become, even if it is not what He want us to become.
God's plan is where I am included, and I am making sure God is part of my plans too to have a purpose in this lifetime. God bless!

Thank you my friend for agreeing. I know God wants us to serve our purpose here on earth. If we seek for His guidance and help, we'll surely make it. May God bless us always!

I agrre woth you my friend, God only knows the purpose of our existence here on earth. I believe that each individual has a purpose. i guess through our God given intellect and wisdom, we can make our life worth living everyday by knowing God more.walks in His way and follow His commanments. Maybe through these, we will know what is our purpose here on earth.

dear bing, the purpose of life is to become self-realized. you are making a good start...it all begins with asking the questions that you just asked, bing...continue to question your existence...and your intense desire to know the truth of life, will guarantee that you will find your answer to it...peace, stanzi

hi stanzi! many books that i read says that each of us here on earth were created have a purpose. i guess someday i will find the main reason of my existence here on earth. i believe that God made nobody that is worthless here on earth but He made us to be someday.
