Simply put? Because He calls us to.
For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love, He predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ in accordance with his pleasure and will. Ephesians 1:4-5
We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. For this hope we were saved. But hope that has seen is no hope at all who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. Romans 8:22-26
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless in this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. James 1:27
