Life
“I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).
Unsaved people think that they are having fun if they can drink and party, and as they say, “live it up.” But the next day, life, with its problems and frustrations, is still there. The Lord Jesus came to give the abundant life; life full and overflowing; a happy life; one in which there is Someone who really does care for us and wants to carry our sorrows and our burdens (for Christians do have them sometimes). Nothing that man offers can give the peace that a Christian has. What God offers is not just for a night or a moment, or even just for this life…it is for eternity!
A girl at college told a friend of mine, “I wish I had the peace you have.”
He told her, “That’s only possible by trusting in the Lord Jesus and having Him as your peace and joy.”
What about you, do you have abundant life? It is being offered freely to you at this very moment.
