When our son, Casey was young…
We left a blizzard in NJ…
To fly to Florida…
While on the beach enjoying the sun, sand, and waves…
Casey said, “Ahhhh, this is the life!”
We laughed so hard!!
And, it got me thinking…
Christians are called to be more…
So much more…
To be different…
To be set apart for so much more from God…
To be more in this world…
To live with a purpose…
We’re called to believe all the promises of God…
And live them with God’s help…
Not just a “Good Life”
A “God Life”
A life full of God…
A godly life…
Standing on the promises of God!
He wants to give us His best!!
He created us not to simply live the good life…
But, so we can live life with Him…
He loves us…
He sent His son, Jesus and offered Him up to die for us…
To save us…
And sent us His Holy Spirit to teach us and guide us into all Truth..
Then, we can know the nature of God…
Then, we can become more like Jesus each day…
In this “God Life,” He gives us love, faith, hope, favor…
When we offer up our entire life to Him…
When we trade our good life for the God Life He divinely planned for us!
Take advantage of all of God’s promises…
They’re all for you!!
You are His!
You’re Beautiful!
In His Eyes!
Amen!
2 Peter 1:3
“His divine power has given us everything we need
for a godly life
through our knowledge of Him
who called us by His own glory and goodness.”
“When we offer up our entire life to Him… When we trade our good life for the God Life He divinely planned for us!” – very, very well said. Thanks for the blessing!
Thank you so much, Pastor Rob! The God Life is definitely worth the trade!! Amen!
