John 10:10, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” Life to the full. Full of what? Joy, peace, love, and well-being.A rich and satisfying life. One that overflows with goodness. That is what God wants for you and me. That is what sin has stolen from us and what the sacrifice on Calvary seeks to restore.
