Can anyone tell me a reason for staying in this life and not going to see Jesus? Wht's ur reason for staying alive?
 
Re: Can anyone tell me a reason for staying in this life and not going to see Jesus?

to live out his mission and to Glorify God while we are here and cherish his gift of life. it is not when we decide to go see him, but when he comes back or calls us home.

...bluntly, because God wouldn't have put me here if there wasn't something He wanted me to do.

(I want to go to be with Him having done what His will is for me.) ^_^

my two cents worth:
God must have a reason and a plan for putting us all here on earth, if not, He'd just have placed us all in heaven in the first place
I know it can be hard, even impossible to see what difference one can make, but you do have a reason for being where you are.
Maybe have you made a great difference in someones life without even knowing.

If the Lord didn’t want us here, then wouldn’t he put us somewhere else?

What’s bothering you?

The answer is simple, Exodus 20:13, “You shall not murder." The problem is, if you end your life before God's time, you won't get to see Jesus.

Just sayin. I actually like other peoples' answers better.

My ONLY reason for desiring to stay alive, this side of heaven, is so that I can see people saved from hell as well. It is one desire to go and be with the Lord, but I think it is better to desire to be here so that other people can be saved to. So simply, to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ!!!

I like this reason. I'm still here because if Jesus wanted me with Him He would call me and I wouldn't be here anymore. right now specifically I'm here for my husband, kids and friends so that I can love them and thus demonstrate God's glory through unconditional love and mercy as He has shown me in my life so I try and copy and show through my actions to others the grace that has saved me.
