We are very complex beings to say the least. We have a mind, body, soul, will emotions etc. But at our very core we are spiritual beings first and foremost. This is who we truly are, not our ego. Our ego is the one who seems to speak the loudest to us throughout the day. It is often selfish, greedy, prideful, impatient and weak. Our spirit, however, is wise, deep, rich, quiet and strong. It will sit on the side lines without saying a word until we look within for guidance. Once we do there is a wealth of knowledge for us to follow for every situation in life. 

We are spirit because God is spirit. We are one in the same. Who God is and what God does, God mostly does through us, through the spirit. There are literally millions of examples throughout history where God moved on His own or through ordinary people by spiritual means that accomplished some pretty amazing if not miraculous feats. In Genesis, the first chapter of the first book of the bible, alone are many awesome examples...
