He created us to love us. We are made in His image and have the ability to show His character and nature in our love, patience, forgiveness, kindness and faithfulness.

I agree. God is described as love, agape love, and agape love gives. It is the highest and greatest love. I think that mankind was created to reflect that love. In this love is glorified.
Well, every now and then, I feel like we're pieces on a chess board in a game between God and satan . Just kidding...kind of!
I do think we're here for God's amusement though. That may sound condescending, but it isn't meant to be. I just honestly think we're here as part of God's plan. He created us for the same reasons we decide to have children...and yeah, sometimes some of our children don't turn out so well, but they're our children nonetheless . Before He created us, He had the angels. Then Lucifer rebelled against Him. He created man and the rest is HIStory.
That probably sounds very kindergartnerish, but hey...sometimes you just have those days and I have a COLD!!!! So I can blame it on the cold meds!

"Let us create man in our image" IMO God had a plan for everything, since before he created the universe. We can only use our imaginations to answer why God did anything, before the fall of man..After the fall we know what his plans were because he revealed them through the prophets..I cannot in my peabrain imagine why we were created. I do believe that we were created out of pure love, since that is what God is..Because of his pure love he gave us a way back to him...
To celebrate Him and to witness His creation.
We fill a niche, we serve Him & His purposes.
We are endowed with the ability to reason and we pursue His pure knowledge with a zeal, so that we may further serve His purposes.
To learn lessons.
To reach pefection.
To experience life.
To recognize evil, and to help Him fight to eliminate it.
To elevate & set free the spirit of man from a mere corporeal existence.
To become more like Him, more divine.
To know, cherish & experience time.
To be a link in His chain of reality.
And a cog in his wheel of life.
To experience destiny.
To see His light.
And to live the truth of justice and His Word.
So that we can grow from where we now exist and apply it to where we shall be going.
On a great adventurous journey with God as the pilot.

God created us to worship Him and fulfill His work of the kingdom here on earth.
"Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven".
