To learn and then to teach.
To spread knowledge and love.

I went through a whole heap of hell to begin to even want to search for my life's purpose. I started and joined a church. New Birth South on Mt. Zion rd. in Jonesboro, GA. The church showed me how to have a relationship with God it didn't teach me about religion. So find a good bible-based teaching faith filled church, you'll know IT when you find it. Then the holy spirit will speak to you about your purpose. If you need an outline read Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life.

Short answer? Yes. Our purpose is to experience the physical universe. God is a spiritual being with no experience of a physical nature. We are here to experience all things in the physical universe that was created for us. This means the good things along with the bad. Ultimately, we are here as God's tools to experience every conceivable emotion and event for God's personal enlightenment. We're kinda like God's giant ant farm ;)

Read "The Purpose Driven Life". It's a great book that helps us discover our purpose in life. Our purpose is God's purpose. He wants us to live a life that's pleasing to Him. He wants us to believe, know the Word of the Lord, live the Word of the Lord, and share the Word of the Lord with others. He wants us to worship Him in truth and inspirit.

I am still trying. It sometimes appears that we are here to suffer; to repay for the sins we've committed in our previous birth. Sometimes you feel that you are committing more sins & fall into a trap. The only way out is to live without expectations & try to be of help to others as much as possible. Religion, caste, language etc. should not stand in your way to serve other living beings & get inner satisfaction. I think this is the purpose of life. LIVE & LET LIVE.

I believe my life purpose is not to be famous and important because everybody's already trying that, but to encourage others and lift up them up to feel better of them selves. I'm not sure if it's my purpose or not, but that's all I know what to do at times. Until I find something better that I'm good at, I'll keep doing this.

We are here in this Earth Age for the purpose of pleasing God. All of us from the time of the sixth day creation of man to the eight day creation of man. We are here for the purpose of choosing between the fathers.
Life or death. Jesus Christ or Satan. Choose life, Jesus Christ and live forever. Don't choose Jesus Christ and your decision is already made for you. Death. Out of existence. Plain and simple.
People try to compound why were are here with dogmas and theologies based on man made religion. That's a dead end. Don't go there, seek the wisdom of God.
My life's purpose is being a pillar in the Temple of God. I feel that I have achieved this purpose through my faith In God and His Saviour Jesus Christ.
Bless God for He continues to bless you.><>

The seeking for spirituality in our lives is a constant vision before our eyes. That is life's purpose...to contantly change and grow through learning.
