First, we want to be clear that there is NO other way to have an abundant life except through Jesus. Jesus said in John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the LIFE” (emphasis added). In John 11:25 He said, “I am the resurrection and the LIFE (emphasis added)” Jesus is life, so the only way to live the best, or abundant life, is to live your life through Him. The starting point to this life begins by establishing a personal relationship with Jesus. Once we accept His gift of salvation, making Him our Savior and Lord, we then have full access to the abundant life. As we grow in this relationship and align ourselves with His will, our desires for, and views of, life begin to change.
