I believe I do. I feel that my life's purpose is to help others to find theirs. I've always wondered why I had been given so many gifts from God.
We call these gifts, talents, or creativity.
I sing, draw, design, play flute, piano, dance, write compositions, teach, author of poetry, crochet, knit, to name a few.
Why would God have blessed me with the knowledge of all these things? I can look at someone do something, and can do it. I realize that this isn't normal, and sometimes I try to hide it, so as to appear like the norm, but when I perform and amaze people with my knowledge of these things, they think its a trick and that I must have practiced them.
I figured it out though. I feel that whatever your life's purpose is, one only need look to what is already inside of you. Whatever your purpose is, it is revealed through your God given talents.

I share it all the time on here. But people just keep asking the same old questions over and over. But, if you insist, here it is again, one more time...
We are here so that God can experience God's self.
God is absolute. In this state there are no contradictions and no relativity. Everything is constant, absolute.
God knows what God is, but the knowing of a thing and the experiencing of it are two entirely different things. For example you know what ice cream is, but experiencing the taste of it is different (and SO much better) than just intellectually knowing that it is frozen cream and sugar.
God created life as we know it so that God could experience God's self in the world of relativity through us, who are each an individuation of the whole.
God does not judge us for our actions...after this physical incarnation ends we will return to the spiritual dimension and decide if we want to stay or experience another physical incarnation. This is how we serve God.
So, live life with joy and gratitude and take advantage of the chance to fully experience every event that comes your way.

Strange you should ask.. I have been attempting to find out what my purpose is and I still cannot figure it out.. I was told by many people over the years that each person is put on this earth for a purpose.. I am not sure I believe this if I cannot figure out what that purpose is/was

My purpose in life is to raise my children, be helpful to my family and friends and help as many people as I can with there problems. I don't know if I was sent here to do that, but that's what I figured to be my mission in life.

I found out my life's purpose when i was 14 years old. My life's purpose is to help dead spirits find their home and to help lost spirits cross over.You may think I am just lying but it is very true. I can see,hear and feel the spirits' presents. It is very rewarding to help them. My mom and her mom and so on all had this gift but it can interupt your life as easy as it can help you understand everything you can do with your life.It can also be very stressful. So you have to be very good with handling things and coping with stress. But anyway that is my life's purpose. And i have been doing it since I was 14 years old.

To help others. Whether it be something small or large. A smile may make a person's day. Just any act of kindness. My kindness to other may show Jesus' love. And if I can help just one person to see that Jesus is the way, then I feel that I serving my purpose.

I believe that MY purpose is to do the will of my Heavenly Father, and to walk in His statutes to make life better for others, and to spread the Word of His Truth. Also, I believe that I am to do the best with the things He has intrusted me with (kids, husband, job, health, the world around me). I want to be with Him in the next life, therefore, I must make THIS life the best I can make it according to how He directs.

My life's purpose is to seek and achieve happiness and contentment while helping others to do the same, thus leaving the world happier and more contented than when I arrived.

To know God, to love God, to serve God, and to be happy with him in heaven. All life is preparation for this. Our vocation in life is the expression of this preparation.
Personally for me, I write, and I share God through the internet, and through print media.
