Muévase a más

SPANISH EDITION: Today people are weary and fearful, living in uncertain and difficult seasons of life. Maybe they’re struggling with a spouse’s broken promises and betrayal, living paycheck-to-paycheck or raising children in a single-parent home. Some are caring for a sick parent or grieving over the loss of one. More by Wilfredo de Jesus encourages readers that there is something more, and that God has promised and planned a richer, more abundant life than the one they’re living now. His “more” is infinite with no ceiling. His Word promise that we can learn to live in his fullness.

Sharing his own life story of experiencing “more,” De Jesús tells readers that they, too, have been marked by God, destined to live in His fullness. Confidently knowing that God has marked us for abundant life gives us the strength, encouragement, and perspective to go through difficult times. In the same way, that confidence instills humility with each blessing.

De Jesús also looks at specific deterrents that keep us from living life abundantly, such as fear, unfocused busyness, self-inflicted wounds, and selfishness. When we fill our lives with what we want, what we desire, we make no room for God’s “more.” “De Jesús has learned that “more” “requires less of me.”

Challenging the American mentality of “more” as money and wealth, De Jesus is clear that “more” is not a reward (If I do this, I’ll get that). Rather, he encourages us with biblical truth that from the beginning, God has planned for us to live in His “more,” the abundant life that walking one step after another in obedience and faithfulness produces.

When you learn to live in God’s “more,” you learn to:

• Experience the fullness of God
• Walk step by step, fully engaged in the present
• Gain strength and joy in the trials
• Discover order in the chaos
• Find rest in the busyness

Look for and identify God’s provision in your life.
