People all over the world are searching for the good life. Unfortunately for many, their sights are set too low. Jesus elevates the standard for the good life. No longer limited to the pleasure and treasure of this world, He opens up new vistas of meaning, purpose, and impact that transcend time. He tells us that the good life is lived in relationship with Him, allowing Him to transform our lives for His purposes. Do you want to live the good life?
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.—James 3:13
Prayer: Jesus, open our eyes and transform our perspective on life. Help us to see the good life from Your vantage point. May humility and God-confidence lead us into a fullness of life that can only be explained by Your presence and wisdom. We ask in Your name, amen.
