The two most asked questions in history are "why was I born," and "what is my purpose." simple answer you are here for the plesure of the Creator, the Creator delights in your fullfilment. from the Creator flows three,,,, lets say rivers or beams of light. One light is blessings, the other is correction, and the third is a melding of the two who very few ever exsperiance. All things that come from the creator are good. But we percieve the corection as bad or evil becouse it hurts or makes us uncomfortable. Lets now call the two outer beams of lights mercy and severity. If one allows themself to become too much outside the will of the Creator the Creator gives us the correction of severity, to try to swing us back the other way to his blessings. the third light as I say is very hard to feel, becouse it takes giveing up your ego,and closeing off the blessings to yourself in mesure. To do this you must become like the Creator. you must become the giver and not the taker. The more you do this though the more the Creator tries to fill your,,,lets say Cup. as you give more away the more the creator tries to fill it. you except a portion though to now please the creator now becomeing like him, takeing plesure form giving him plesure of giveing an giveing to others you have duplicated the will of the Creator. Most people are locked into the resiveing and always wanting a fuller Cup, but if you see it this way, If you are hungy for the taste of huney, you antisapate the taste of it and your desire is great, but after getting the huney and haveing your fill the desire is now gone so the Creator make a new desire in yourself. By not letting your cup be filled fully you keep the desire, but you have turned of your ego. This questian could take years to explain, but I have given you a taste of the answer. Our porpose here is to become the full will of the Creator which is to return to him.

I definitely believe that we are here to love and obey God and to do good to our fellowmen treating them with compassion and understanding.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 states that the whole duty of man is to fear God and keep His commandments. Fear refers to godly fear meaning we should be afraid of doing unrighteousness. Keeping His commandments means obeying Him. God is the creator and any creator like us because we also create does whatever he wants to his creation. God is so loving that He says everything for our own sake. The Holy Bible is complete from the very beginning up to the end. God tells us from where we are and to where we are going. He provides us with all the things we need. The Word of God is life. God says that man shall live not on bread alone but on every word coming out of the mouth of God. God gives us wisdom to know what we are going to do. He created everything for our physical need. God is Spirit (like air or wind that we cannot see) and God says that anybody who sees Him will die and so He didn't even let Moses to see Him except His back. God says if we have faith like a grain of mustard, we will be able even to command the mountain to move to where we like. It is up to us to decide to hold on to God or not.

Hi zerorhoi, God created us to have a relationship with Him. We are here to glorify God and enjoy all that He has given us. God is first in my life. I want to please Him and when I do, He blesses me! With the Lord in my life, it can't be any better! God bless:)

Hi zerorhoi, You've asked the age old question, that people have been pondering since humans first began to think. I don't believe that anyone can answer that question for you, it's something that you have find out for yourself. I feel that we are here to help each other, and hopefully in the process discover something about who we really are. Blessings.

First off I would say don't believe every one saying your purpose is anything about God. As most responders have said it's an unanswered question. There is no way right now for a regular person to know what reason this planet exists for. We are here, might as well make the best of it and hopefully at some point in our existence all our questions will be answered, or maybe not. Who knows. Anyone preaching existence for God believes blindly. We are sentient beings who are capable of more than following cultist mentalities promising unknown treasures. I try to live to make the world a better place for myself and others.

That seems to be the golden, most asked and unanswered question there is. We are here for a purpose. Granted, not everyone knows there purpose, but we are still here for a purpose. We are here to fulfill what ever fate or destiny God has placed before us. The path is set. The only choices we have to make is what forks we take in the middle to get to the end. No one will ever know the true answer to the reason for our existance. There are those who could be something as large as curing cancer and there are those who could accomplish making some old lady that you've never met before, smile just because you did the same to her. While both of these tasks seem so different in contrast to one another, really, if you think about it, they are both very important. Whether you help one life or millions, fact is, you have helped. We are all a piece of that helping puzzle. We could go our whole lives without knowing what it is that we accomplished in our lifetime. But know this, you have or you will accomplish something that gives you greater purpose and meaning. You will accomplish something that gives you reason for why you are here. Why we are here. Thanks for the post.
