Where Are All The People?


















The second day of ministry was a very interesting one. We had planned on going to a park and talking to people and asking what is our purpose. However, when we got to the park, there were no people. So we left the park and as we were driving, we still could not find a place with enough people to interview. Finally, as noon was approaching, we ended up going to a Wal-Mart parking lot looking for people. Austin and I were given the camera and then sent off to try and interview people as they were either coming or going. We talked to about six or seven people. One of the answers that stuck out to me was a lady, when asked what is our purpose, her answer was to just survive. If surviving were our only purpose, then why would God have created us? Why would He have shown us grace and mercy by sending His son to die for us? After interviewing this lady, Austin and I talked to another man whom I believe had the correct answer. He told us that our purpose is to fulfill the Great Commission by studying God's word and teaching others what we have learned; to raise our children in a Godly manner teaching them to study the Gospel and share it with others. This guys answer amazed me! He not only knows that man is not here on Earth by some accident, but he knows what our purpose is.
