God made us to live and to live well.<\/strong> He designed us, as human beings, to reach not just our own greatest potential, but His. We\u2019re born to become part of His <strong>awesome<\/strong> glory. \u201cSo, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.\u201d -1 Corinthians 10:31<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Act!<\/strong> Living well doesn\u2019t include sitting inside every day, numbly watching television or getting dragged into depression by a frustratingly monotonous job. Ask God to enhance your living experience and take action. \u201cDelight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart\u201d. \u2013Psalm 37:4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Growth occurs <em>outside<\/em> your comfort zone.<\/strong> Too much comfort has an awful tendency to breed laziness. There are so many opportunities available to us and we can grow from each of them. \u201cBut grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever. Amen.\u201d -2 Peter 3:18.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you living? I mean, are you really alive?
