We live because the Lord gave us life. He breathed life into us, and gave us the ability to live. We are alive, because God has a purpose for us on this earth, but being alive on earth is only part of his plan, he wants us to spend eternity in Heaven, living forever in his presence.

We can spend our lives searching for the meaning of life and why we live, but if we do not know why we are searching the searching just may turn out to be fruitless.

Personally I believe that we are on the earth to prepare ourselves for an eternity in Heaven. I also believe the Lord wants us to build up his kingdom and in order for us to do that, we need to study the word.

I believe we live because God gave us the breathe to live, and he wants us to follow his commands, he wants us to serve him in all things, and he wants us to live our lives knowing that tomorrow is not guranteed, that does not mean we act rectless or anything its just a way of serving him and loving him.

The reasons we live is because we were put on the earth to make a difference through Christ. By that I mean we need to serve Christ throughout our lives, and we need to let him work through us but in order for him to do that we first need to accept his sacrice on the cross for us.
