Why Am I Here?Living a Life of Faith
Hey Butterball – how’s your day going?
Are you calling me fat?
Who did?
I never said you were fat.
Did what?
I never said you were fat!
You may not have said it – but you thought it.
Who did you think you were texting then?
What? I never said you were fat.
You.
What did you think?
That’s what I thought.
What did you think I would think when you
thought what you thought? Not sure what is
happening here – but I never said you were fat.
Not now.
I was – or I am? So I was fatter then – or I’m
fatter now?
Or then.
I mean never.
I never said you were fat.
What would you call me then?
Beautiful.
I love you pound cake.
I love you.
Are you calling me fat?

From before time began God has purposed that He would call a people to be His very own - a
people that would know Him, love Him, Live with Him, give Him glory,
and please Him.
Why Am I Here?A Divine Purpose
Glory – the weightiness of God. God’s glory is the all-encompassing
greatness of God.

There is no perfect place to serve God – only the place where you are
now.

If we are waiting on anything to give our everything in service to God right where we are – we will never be able to live a life that
pleases God – a life of faith.

Why Am I Here?All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive
the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.
Hebrews 11:13
Why Am I Here?
Regardless of the outcome We will believe HimWe will follow Him
We will live lives that demonstrate we believe God and His promises.
