Extraordinary Ordinary!

31天中的第2天

“I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly,” were the stirring and purposeful words of Jesus spoken to His band of brothers at one of His most intense teaching sessions chronicled. When Jesus spoke to His disciples at this moment in time, He was thinking about you. He was thinking about me.

In the Greek, there are three types of life that are each identified by a completely different word.

Bios life is the duration of life. It is the dash on your tombstone as determined by exactly how many days you breathed in the oxygen of planet Earth. The word bios is not used in John 10:10.

Psyche life consists of mind and intellect. This type of life is the knowledge you accumulate while on your life’s journey. The word psyche is not used in John 10:10
The third type of life is zoe life. Zoe life comes from one place and one place alone: it is a gift from God! Zoe life is fertilized in the presence of God and by cultivating the intimacy that comes from a relationship with the Lord.

Zoe is joy ... righteousness ... peace ... purity ... hope … wisdom ... and strength. All of those attributes, and more, are yours simply because you belong to Jesus.
God has added super abundance to your meaningless, vagabond existence so that no longer are you shackled by the same issues and events which paralyze people who are only living a psyche and bios life. Zoe life is extravagantly more than mere psyche and bios; zoe is life with the sparkle of Heaven stirred in.

Your life was never meant to be ordinary nor was it meant to be mundane. Your life was always meant to be a miraculous demonstration of the power of God manifesting itself in mere mortals. This is your life! Jesus came to give you zoe life and because of Him and all that He has packed in you ... you are so much more than remarkable!

Extraordinary Ordinary!

“Extraordinary Ordinary!” is a challenge to live well and embrace the life you have been given with no regrets. We must each accept responsibility for our own lives with no blame or aspersions cast in the direction of others and their choices. You, in partnership with God, will design the life that will occupy the length of your days. While you may not be able to determine all of the events and circumstances of your life, the atmosphere of your life is entirely up to you.
