Strengthen yourselves so that you will live here on earth doing what God wants […]

1 Peter 4:2 (NCV)

The ultimate life is about “doing what God wants.” Those whose lives are about negotiating, arguing or debating with God are living low-level lives. Once you submit yourself to God’s will, doing what He wants, living to please Him, you’ll experience an ultimate life. And yet, Peter states that to do what God wants, we must strengthen ourselves. Getting spiritually fit will set you up for ultimate living.
