So Much More




God doesn't mean for me to just exist.  Not merely to survive.

He promises that he can give me more than I can ever dream or imagine.  (Ephesians 3:20)

I want to thrive.  I want to soak up every good thing God has for me.  

I want to drink His Living Water until I am full to bursting and then to pour it back out for others. 

I want to not just hope for good things, but to expect them.  To live knowing for a fact that they are right around the corner and heading this way.  

To live each moment as if it is the best it can possible be and as if the next will be even better.  

To stop expecting disappointment or struggles, but to grab onto God's promise that all things will be worked for good and claim it as my own. (Romans 8:28)

To thrive.

    Yes! Surviving is just existing...I want to live...I want to thrive for a God in a world that is so in need of his love and forgiveness! Great post Becky.
