Life to the full - Day 17 - Drawing Closer to God

Today we have the choice to look to Jesus and what He did for us – gave His life so we could have life and have life to the full. We can choose to fully embrace that act of love. I remember when were were about four years into our journey with Victoria I had to make that choice – would I continue to live in fear that the tumour in her brain would grow for the fourth time, or would I choose to believe that Jesus had come so that she, and our whole family would have life to the full. Seems like an easy choice to make doesn’t it – but the mind is powerful and fear comes – Only spending time in God’s word, in worship and prayer enabled me to come to that place where I could make this choice.

If you are struggling to make that choice, my prayer is that these devotions will help you draw closer to God today and get to that place where you can live life to the full in Jesus Name. (Day 17 – YouTube)

Day 17 – Life to the full

Hang on to God’s peace and don’t let go.

The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]. I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His [own] life for the sheep. John 10:10-11 AMP
