John 3:16-17
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

God became one of us in Jesus and showed us how to live and how to die. If we follow His way…we find true life right here and now. It’s the way of dying to our own selfish desires and using our gifts and talents in the service of others’ needs. Pursuing our own egocentric desires leads to an endless quest for more which eventually leads to a dead-end. But when we let go of our attachments to possessions, prestige and power, we paradoxically receive all that we need. Unencumbered by these attachments…we find freedom, peace and joy. In other words…we find abundant life that is both now and eternal. Jesus almost always talked about the “kingdom of God” in terms of the present. Turn to Jesus…follow Him…and discover true life now.
