If you ask a hundred people what they think “life to the full” means, you will get a hundred different answers.

I posed this question to my friends on Facebook, and here’s what some of them had to say…

It means to continue to watering and cultivate the Holy Spirit in my life every day. (Gal 5:22-25) Then living out these characteristics to those God puts in my path today.

Doing what I love and loving what I do everyday.

However, if you ask AI to write a three-point sermon for you on what life to the full means, which is what I did, here’s what you might get…

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Today, we will reflect on the words of Jesus found in John 10:10, where he says, “I have come that they may have life and have it to the full.” This verse is a powerful reminder of the abundant life that Christ offers us. Let us explore this verse together and discover what it means for us today.

Firstly, the abundant life that Christ offers is not merely about material possessions or earthly pleasures. Instead, it is a life filled with spiritual abundance. Jesus came to offer us a life where we can experience the love of God, the peace that surpasses all understanding, and the joy of salvation. This abundant life is rooted in a relationship with Christ, where we can find rest for our weary souls and hope for the future. As we draw closer to Christ, we can experience the fullness of life that he promises.

Secondly, the abundant life that Christ offers is a life of purpose. Jesus did not come to simply give us a life of leisure and ease. Instead, he came to offer us a life where we can make a difference in the world. Christ has a unique purpose and plan for each one of us, and when we surrender our lives to him, he can use us to bring hope, healing, and love to those around us. As we seek to live out his purpose for our lives, we can experience the fullness of life that he promises.

Finally, the abundant life that Christ offers is a life of eternal significance. Jesus came to offer us a life that extends beyond the here and now. He offers us the gift of eternal life with him in heaven. This eternal life is not just a continuation of our earthly existence but a life that is free from pain, suffering, and sin. It is a life where we can be in the presence of God forever, and where we can experience the fullness of his love and grace.

In conclusion, let us remember the words of Jesus in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life and have it to the full.” The abundant life that Christ offers is a life filled with spiritual abundance, purpose, and eternal significance. As we seek to live out this abundant life, let us draw closer to Christ, discover his purpose for our lives, and look forward to the eternal life that he offers us.

May God bless us as we seek to live out the abundant life that he has promised us. Amen.
