Are You Thriving or Merely Surviving

God is Love


May God give you of heaven’s dew and of earth’s richness— an abundance of grain and new wine. Genesis 27:28

Prosperity is part of the American Dream. But as we all know, what goes up must come down. Having been stalled out in this downturn now for quite some time, many are struggling to stay afloat. Being hard-pressed, we all long to return to the “good old days” -- to a time in which we do more than merely survive.

God has promised us an abundant life, but how we define abundance may not be how God defines it. While we can trust that God will deliver, it’s up to us to see things as He see things and not view our circumstances through the lens of this world. By embracing God’s perspective, that Jesus is our provision for all our needs, we will find hope for the things to come.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. Ephesians 1:3


Because God is love, through Christ, we not only survive but can thrive in every circumstance.
