God did not create man to be a spectator. He created man to be a ruler, a steward, a subduer, a fruitful and multiplying force for His glory on this earth. God did not make you to sit in the stands and watch the game. He blessed you and told you to be fruitful. He told you to replenish and subdue and have dominion. That is not the language of a passive, comfortable, ordinary life. That is the language of a person that is not satisfied without a life with the company of apes and peacocks!
