More!

Whether we realise it or not we are all looking of a touch from something that is greater than ourselves, a touch of the divine even.

Life needs to be more than a 9 to 5 existence. More than a survival of each day. There is more to life than merely existening.

We can find the divine many ways. Maybe it is gazing at the night sky, looking in wonder at the oceans or the mountains or listening to a piece of music that transports us to another place and time.

One of my most memorable experiences was, last year, flying over Africa above a spectacular lightning storm. Seeing the sky light up with the flashes of lightning was something I will never forget.

There is so much more to this life than work, eating and sleeping.

We don't know how long we have with this life. It is a gift that we should squeeze out every last drop and ounce that we can.

God wants to be part of your life, all parts. Not just to instruct and guide but to show us all that he has created. For us to enjoy and to experience. To soar and not to trudge. To drink ourselves full of all that He offers!

The Bible says this about Jesus. I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. (John 10:10)

Make a decision to live and not just get by. You owe that to yourself.
