Election Results: Good Life Available to All

I’m assuming that if you are reading this blog that you survived Election Day yesterday and I have some good news for you. Experiencing the good life is not dependent on who won the election.

In 1 Peter 3:10, the Apostle spoke about living the good life to some Christians who were being persecuted. Also, this verse is a quote from Psalm 34. Psalm 34 was written by David during that time in his life when he was being chased down by King Saul. Saul wanted to kill David.

So the Bible teaches us that even people who are having their lives threatened can live the good life. So powerful is what we have in Christ and in the Scripture that we can live the good life no matter what the circumstances might be.

One huge benefit of understanding this is that it frees me from chasing what the world says is the good life.
