What constitutes the “good life”? Is it more toys than your neighbor? Career success? Respect among peers? The right friends or spouse? Unbridled freedom? Psalm 1:1-6 says the good life (aka, the “blessed” life) is not about any of these things. Rather, the good life is about becoming a kind of person who lives well forever. The good life is like a well planted tree that draws life from a flowing stream and produces fruit in every season. As believers in Christ, our well-planted life draws from the life-giving stream of the Holy Spirit and from dwelling in Jesus’ instruction about the way God works (God’s “Law”). This is what we mean at CLPC when we say, “Empower Every Life.” It means we are cooperating with the Holy Spirit’s transforming power in our lives.

Yours for Christ,
