God made you to flourish -- to receive life from outside yourself, creating vitality and producing blessing beyond yourself. Flourishing is God's gift and plan, and when you flourish you are in harmony with God, other people, creation, and yourself. Flourishing is not measured by outward signs such as income, possessions, or attractiveness. It means becoming the person [God] had in mind in creating you. Flourishing means moving toward God's best version of you.
"The righteous will flourish like a palm tree… they will flourish in the courts of our God." (Psalm 92:12-13)
