The Bottom Line

For a better life in this world and a better eternity in the next, people must get past worldly assumptions of “success” and “happiness” to connect with what is ultimately real, ultimately true, and ultimately purposeful. 

Behind everything we see or know or think we know—everything—we see evidence of a Creator. Of all the religious books in the world, only one depicts a Creator who genuinely exists and acts beyond the bounds of human concoction. Only one takes the human condition as seriously as it needs to be taken. Only one is brutally honest with who we are and what we need. Like it or not, that book is the Bible. 







If we take seriously what that book reveals, and the relationship it leads us into, our lives will radically change. That change may happen quickly or over a lifetime, though some who claim that belief and relationship allow very little change to happen in their lives.

But for those who engage with the living God, everything meaningful and purposeful comes down to two things. Jesus called them the “greatest” and the “second” greatest commandments: love God above all else, and love others as yourself (Matthew 22:36–40). 







Loving God essentially comes down to living a life of holiness, set apart and totally devoted to God. Loving others essentially comes down to being a blessing to them.

These together are the ultimate definition of a successful life. Not degrees, not accomplishment, not wealth, not power, not having fun.

In earthly terms, loving God and being a blessing lead to success. 

In heavenly terms, loving God and being a blessing are themselves the definition of success.

May you be successful.
