Jesus Gives Abundant Life
John 10:10
The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (John 10:10 NKJV)
There is nothing that can destroy your life faster than the thief. The thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. How does he do this? He entices and tempts you, distracting you and pulling your focus away from Jesus.
What is drawing you away from a deeper relationship with Christ? Be watchful of these things. Guard your heart and replace areas of temptation by filling your life with Jesus. Spend time with Him in prayer, immerse yourself in His Word, and walk in obedience to His will.
When you do this, you will experience the abundant life that Jesus promises. ~ Jeff M Newman
