WhyI Live

Last night, we started the new series WhyI. Through the various weeks we will check out why we do the things we do. It's a very exciting series that I am totally stoked to start.

Last night's topic was Why I Live. Some may ask the question, what is my purpose? Why am I living? For some, that question was answered last night. For some, well, they may have to look a little deeper.

I want to reinforce something that was taught last night. So many of us want to know what our purpose is, but don't chase after it. What is it going to take for you to go after something.

Last night we talked about existing vs. living. I said that there may be some that are sitting in the chairs that are just existing. They are here to be born, grow up, get through school, college, get a good job, get married, have kids, and die with no purpose except for getting through life. Then we have the opposite side of the spectrum. We have teens that are avid followers of Christ who go and seek out what their purpose may be.

I challenge you to go out, get off your butt and look to see what God has for you. Try things! Read the Bible, pray about it. What does God have in store for you?

Reach for it. Grab it. Run with it.
