Sometimes it can seem as though we are living on a treadmill … constantly moving and getting fatigued, but never really getting anywhere.

From our very beginnings we were created for more than just going through the motions. More than just to survive.

Jeremiah 29:11 tells us:
“I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord,
“plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.“

Deuteronomy 14:2 says:
“For you are a people holy to the Lord your God,
and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession,
out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.”

Those declarations do not communicate that we are here for simply an existence, or to just survive,

but that we are created with intentional purpose and love.

We have been given breath so that we can thrive.

Casting Crowns song, Thrive, reminds us that we were, truly made for more … we were made to thrive!

“Here in this worn and weary land
Where many a dream has died …
We know we were made for so much more
Than ordinary lives
It’s time for us to more than just survive
We were made to thrive

Joy Unspeakable, Faith Unsinkable, Love Unstoppable, Anything is possible”
