Purpose in Life

We're always told that we have a purpose in Life. Still, many people ask what the point of living is.

I don't know how people perceive me, but I'm actually pretty much a pessimist and a realist, I know that being a realist seems to contradict "blind" faith altogether, but what people tend to misunderstand that it is in fact the spiritual world that is more real that anything we can ever physically see. We are so limited by what we can see.

Anyways, being a realist and a pessimist, I acknowledge and understand where people would be coming from if they asked what the point of living is. Lots of people have different motivations for living. I don't know all of them, but I do know one of the more simple reasons why there's a point in living. And I know its totally cliche, but its something that we need constant reminder of, and its so basic that everyone knows it but many people completely miss the point of it. Here goes:

I know that Jesus died for me and that gift of life is a gift of the highest value. How can I just spit in God's face and tell Him His gift isn't good enough for me?

So that's one of my reasons for living. Aside from acknowledging that my work in life is not finished left, I live out of gratitude, respect and Love for God, for His gift of life. Even though I am scum, totally deserving of death and torture, I have been given the greatest gift that could be given, and I would be a total jerk and a complete idiot to give that gift away so easily. Its as simple as that.
