Monday: Solution

There is only one lasting solution to living a lifeless life and that solution is found in Christ. He has something to offer you and that is abundant life. John 10:10 says: "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."(KJV) Jesus came to the earth so that we wouldn't have to live hopeless lives, so that we wouldn't be bound by sin and death; he came so that we could have abundant life. He knew that you would need Him, that you would feel this way, so he came to give you hope and peace. You have to accept His gift in for you and then allow it to change you. Jesus came so that you didn't have to see life the way the world sees it and so that you can be changed for the better. Do you want strength, peace and hope? Jesus's gift will give you this. Begin today by praying and begining to study your Bible so that you might find out for your self what Jesus has planned for you. Abundant life doesn't mean a life of wealth and glamour, it means a life filled with peace, love and joy. Peace in knowing that God will forgive your sins and erase your past,“Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide them. I said to myself, ‘I will confess my rebellion to the LORD.’ And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone” (Psalm 32:5). Joy in knowing that Jesus is coming back for you that this life isn't the end, there is something better planned for you.Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also (John 14: 1-3). Mostly importantly basking in the love of God and letting it shine through your life. 1 John 4:9-10"God showed how much He loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love- not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Sin as a sacrifice to take away our sins." Abundant life is yours and it is found in Jesus try him today and He'll fulfill the deepest longings of your heart.

Jesus Came To Save
by Cindy Wyatt
Jesus came not to call the righteous but sinners to repent
When he left heaven to come to earth that was his sole intent
It's not the people who are whole but those sick who need a physician
Jesus came to save sinners
That's why he gave the great commission


He told us to go into the all the world and preach the gospel to every creature
Jesus came to the world to save sinners, not just to be a good teacher
He died on the cross for all the sins of the world
that those who would on him believe and trust his shed blood for remission of sin
would his free gift of salvation receive


To receive this wonderful gift of eternal life,
you only need to look to Jesus and live
He has already paid your sin debt and is ready and willing to forgive
Jesus loves you so much that he suffered and bled and died
If you've never asked him to be your savior, then today is the day to decide


Jesus died, was buried, and rose again the third day
to save you from going to hell
That is the gospel story the greatest story ever to tell
You only need to trust Jesus with your heart and ask him to be your savior
He'll forgive you of all your sin and write your name in heaven
and give you abundant life and so much more

Today take this verse and apply it to your life: Psalm 118:24 - "This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." (NIV)

Going from living lifeless to living life ABUNDANTLY!

Have you often felt as if your body was alive but everything within you is dead; your emotions, your will to get up, to go on, you feel weary and down; some may call this a feeling of lifelessness. What do you when you feel like this? I have often felt like this and I thought what can be done to make me stop feeling like this? I wanted to feel alive like I had an abundant life. When I felt like this I clung to the promise of Jesus found in John 10:10 where He says that He has come to give life and life more abundantly. So if He came to do that, why wasn't I experiencing this life? Maybe you wonder that as well, so for this next week each day we will explore how you can have life more abundantly. So these will be the topics, Sunday: Realisation, Monday: Solutions, Tuesday: Action plan, Wednesday: Implementation, Thursday: Revision, Friday: Giving Thanks, Saturday: Living Abundantly. Jesus promised that He came to give us life more abundantly, that promise is for me and you and if you follow this blog for the next week you will learn how to claim that promise in your life. No matter what point you are in your life, it's never too late to start over, its never to late, to start living again.

A precious gift
Life can get you down,
But you don't have to let it keep you down
If you read God's word you will see
He has something better planned for you and me
Better than lifeless living
Better than anything money can afford
He has the gift of abundant life
He'll give it to you
If you ask
A life of peace and joy
A life with a lifeline to Heaven
To keep you going strong
You see,
You don't have to give up
You don't have to throw in the towel
God cares for YOU
He loves YOU
And that's why He wants to give you a gift
The gift of abundant life
