Jesus came that we “may have life, and have it to the full” (Jn. 10:10). Does the picture of our lives accurately exhibit the fullness of life in Christ? If people only had our lives to look at, would they view it as a life worth pursuing?
Begin by Understanding the Fullness of Life Jesus Came to Give Us
When we live in the fullness of life in Christ, our lives will be colored with a vibrancy that comes from realizing all we have in Him, how we have been blessed.
Our lives will be full of joy even in the midst of trials and hardship.
We will have power, peace, perspective, and purpose that keeps us going.
We will be wrapped in the love and grace of God, having an intimate relationship with the Almighty.

What An Accurate Picture of the Life in Jesus Leads to
When we realize how much we’ve been blessed, we want to . . .
That enables others to get a taste of the goodness of God (Ps. 34:8), whetting their appetite for more. Similar to putting salt on food to enhance its flavor, an accurate representation of life in Christ can draw others toward Him (Matt. 5:13). We won’t be Salty Christians if our lives fail to accurately picture the fullness of life in Christ.
