John 15:8 “This is my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.” God intends for each of us to flourish.  What does flourish mean?  Flourish means to have a close relationship with Him and let His love be known.  Flourish and success are identical twins.  Both demand an interlocking relationship with our Heavenly Father with our purpose being to praise, honor and tell the world all about Him as He reveals Himself in the Bible.  All earthly blessings are then a result of that relationship.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the world realized this truth?
