better than the best dream

"I came so they can have real and eternal life,
more and better life than they ever dreamed of."

what's your best dream?

is it unlimited wealth?
unprecedented access?
unquestionable leadership?
unexpected knowledge and wisdom?

is it enviable talent?
incomparable beauty?
is it youthful vigor?
athletic finesse?

what drives you to be better?
what holds you back?

there is a verse that says,

"I came so they can have real and eternal life,
more and better life than they ever dreamed of."

with precision and grace, Jesus speaks these words.
with love and knowledge, he proclaims this promise.

this, that could shape and mold and form and create
better than the best dream we could dream.

this, that cuts to the heart,
the arrow that hits the target,
the brilliance that dissipates the fog

it's available. it's active. it's real.

do you and I seek abundant life?
do we want it?

It will cost everything.
