Why Am I Here?

Have you ever wondered why you're here? Not just in church on a Sunday morning, but why you exist at all? This powerful message takes us back to the fundamentals of our faith, revealing three profound reasons for our existence. First, we're called to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, and mind—not just part of us, but everything we are. This means examining what we're filling ourselves with daily. Are we feeding on the things of God, or are we allowing the world's counterfeits to satisfy us? Second, we're here to love our neighbor as ourselves, choosing mercy and compassion even when we've been wronged. This isn't natural—it's supernatural, reflecting the heart of Christ who chose us when our backs were turned to Him. Finally, we're called to walk by the Spirit, allowing our reborn spirit to lead rather than our flesh. The testimony shared about hearing God's voice on that icy highway reminds us that walking by the Spirit isn't theoretical—it's literally life or death. When we're born again, we become spiritual infants who need to grow, learning to recognize the fruit of the Spirit versus the works of the flesh. We're carriers of God's presence, capable of changing every environment we enter. The question isn't whether we'll encounter situations that need Jesus—it's whether we'll recognize them and respond in the Spirit when we do.
