Life, life to the full. That is what everyone is chasing after, struggling to attain.
Everyone wants the best of life and people try so many different ways to get it. People try relationships, possessions, careers, sports, religion but none of these can give life to the full. In the gospel of John, Jesus tells us again and again that he is the life and that he has come to give us life, life to the full. For example John 10v10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.

I came that they may have life and have it abundantly."

Life to the full is found in only one place and that is through trusting in Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord. Those of us who call ourselves Christians, re we showing others the reality of the life to the full that he gives through the way we live each day? Can people look at us and say yes there is something different, something worth having or do they look at us and say "Well if that's the life to the full that Jesus gives I don't want it!"

Let us pray that God will help us show the reality of the life that Jesus gives each day through the way we act and react. That when people hear from us the fact that they can have life to the full through trusting in Jesus, they will also see the reality of it in us.
