Summary
As we continue our week on living an abundant life, today we’ll explore the topic of pursing Jesus passionately in our daily lives. As we discussed the past couple days, abundant life is a gift, but doesn’t mean it comes without a choice on our part to receive. Open your heart to the Father today, and allow your mind to be renewed to the good life he has for you.
Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 27:8, and today's worship is Waste My Life by Craig and Rachel Denison.
