The Abundant Life

John 10:10 . . . . I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Jesus didn't save us to barely cling to spiritual life. He saved us to be filled with His glory, His peace, and His joy. He saved us to overflow with a spiritual bounty. Daily Bible study and seeking and surrenduring to His will brings the abundant life.
During most of my forty some  working years, my daily devotion was quoting Psalm 23 before I went to sleep. Life was hectic, and I didn't think I had time to read God's Word or I was too exhausted. After i retired and began to study God's Word and pray more, I experience the more abundant life. Everybody should get in the Word daily.
Would you describe your Christian life as "abundant"?
