The everyday.

Do you ever feel like life is mundane? Wake up, go to work/school, maybe eat food (if you have enough money), hopefully meet up with friends (occasionally), make dinner, set alarms, sleep and do it all over again. It just seems monotonous, like you never do anything new or noteworthy. Should that really be what life feels like?

I don't think life should feel that way. You are meant to live life and live it to the fullest! You are meant to enjoy the everyday. In the book of John Jesus says that he has come to bring  life (John 10:10). In fact Jesus says that he is the life (John 11:25). When you are fully devoted to him, fully immersed in God’s will, you can experience life. 

Here are the 3 simple ways to experience this life.

Know who God is

​Before you can experience the life God has for you it might be a good idea to take part in his plan. We often think that God is just full of rules and things we cant do. What if those rules were looked at differently? What if we saw them as protection?

To know God means there is a relationship with him. Just like your other (healthy) relationships with others there is an element of trust. So, why would God put “rules” in place to harm you or make life less enjoyable. The best idea is to trust him and the relationship you have with him. Life without fear of consequences is a great step in living life to the fullest. 

Bring God into the everyday

yWhen you are in a relationship with someone you want them to be a part of your life. You bring that special person everywhere. If you want an extraordinary life you have to bring God with you through it all. You have to see him in the mundane. You have to take him with to the long days at work, to the restaurant where you risk our savings to buy lunch, You just have to have him permeate your life.

You have to bring God into your everyday life. He is already with you but you may not recognize it. People  only look to God when they are in trouble or sick. If you could experience God in the everyday your life could be lived to the full. So open your eyes and look for God in the little things.

Share new life with others

If something excites people there is no calming them down about it. I have had many conversations about t.v. shows or video games that I have never heard of all because one person was excited about it and needed to share it with someone else. When something impacts your life in a big way there should be nothing stopping you from sharing it with your friends or even strangers.

If you say that God has changed your life then you need to share it with others. Why should you be the only person who gets to live life to the fullest? Life is meant to be lived with others so let's share our new life and enjoy a community of people all living live to the full.

How will you share new life with others?
