do more than exist
God made us, we exist, but more importantly, He made us to do more than exist. To do more than exist is so much more than getting off the couch, earning a degree, a promotion, running a marathon, or climbing the tallest mountain; do more than exist is to live with the heart of Jesus. He will set you free, He will protect you, He will guide you, He will heal you, He will save you, He will love you. He will help you live beyond your human existence.
We’re here to love Him, to love our neighbors, to use our gifts, bring salt to the earth, to fan into flame the gift of God, to do good works, and to be His boots on the ground.
If you want to do more than exist and haven’t invited Jesus into your life, you can do so right now. All you need to do is simply call on His name to come into your life, humble yourself and ask for forgiveness of your sins, and lastly allow His love to enter your heart. Here is a prayer to guide you:
