The Abundant Life

We all want to please God once we have received His Son as our Savior.  At times, driven by our desire to please him, we run ahead of His calling on our lives.  The good work that we are doing to please the Lord can actually become unfulfilling and result in burnout. 

When we are doing what God called us to do, we can work endlessly.  Even when the work might seem tedious and boring to others, we can go on day after day with great joy.  When we start working to join Our Father in Heaven in His work for His glory instead of working simply to earn His praise, our efforts are more inspired and fulfilling.  As a result, our intimacy with the Lord grows and we experience the richness of living the abundant life that God has planned for us.
